Abstract

This paper explores underground mining. It delves into its ventilation system, and underground water control. By providing a comprehensive overview of their involvement. It aims to highlight the airflow system in underground mining, ground water and control by shedding light on the multifaceted responsibilities of geologist/miners in the extractive mineral industry underground mining. It also aims to underscore their indispensable role in ensuring the responsible and sustainable utilization of valuable mineral resources. The paper recognizes the ongoing importance of geologist in shaping the future of mineral extraction practices, enhancement, installation of devices / equipment and its usage in improving and maintaining the health of miners thereby reducing their health risk.
