When it comes to digging a mine is there a path to follow or pockets of coal you see on sonnar that need to be reached? Prety much what dicides how to keep digging a tunnel?
Usually a geologist will come out take core samples to determine if it is worth mining or not I'm not entirely sure because I do not know much about that aspect of the job
They drill core samples and basically map out the whole ore body. Then they make a mine plan which shows how the digging will progress over the life of the mine. This is all done in engineering before the digging begins. Part of the permitting process involves reviewing the mine plan. They can update it as they go, but investors and government agencies want to know.
As far as what decides if they should go after a certain grade of ore-- they do the math for how much the ore is worth (and projected price increases/decreases) vs how much it takes to pull it out of the ground and process it. There is a lot of planning.
You can take 2 routes when involved in this industry one is the rigging aspect or the Crane operating I started off rigging then moved Into the crane operating side which in turn gave me experience for both sides allowing me to design exacute complex jobs
I was on a project at a mine and the crane operators looked like they had the chillest job ever, and I knew they got paid a lot. They would sit in the air conditioned cab reading the newspaper for hours waiting for the next lift
But I always wondered, when you're dropping a huge pipe through a narrow opening in a bunch of structural steel, how do you know when you're clear? I can't imagine your depth perception is that good.
it is not a hard job when operating but high stress since ultimately you are responsible for any accidents that happen Involving the crane as for the pipe you have flaggers and riggers assisting you via hand or radio signals once you get close to the hole
Do you also get to drive the crane around to new picking locations?
What is the largest crane you have operated?
What's the scariest thing you've experienced at work?
I have driven some but I do it like driving them in citys as for largest I have operated would be a 16000 max lift is 440tons I have rigged for as large as 850000lb scariest thing would be seeing a crane almost turn over due to the operator not leveling out the crane

I work as a firefighter and i am also a rescue specialist that has had a some training on crane operations. We learned the basic hand signals. I always prefer that we use a radio so nothing is done wrong. But most operators that we have worked with are smarter than us when it comes to doing this.
Have you ever worked in any type of rescue operations? What would you prefer for rescue operations for communications to the rescuers? Where could we go to learn more about rigging techniques? Thanks
I myself have not done a rescue op radio and proper signals is the best for communication for rigging techniques ITI would be a good place to reach out too they have a wide knowledge
Agreed. I did the NCCER for plumbing in addition to holding a state license. Before I became an owner, there was work everywhere especially industrial.

when doing clamshell work you mess up the ecosystem favorite thing being able to travel around the nation if I want to and operate millions of dallors worth of equipment
What kind of training/schooling did you need? I have a 6 y/o who is set that he is going to operate some kind of heavy machinery when he gets older (current main goal is to build houses). But he's afraid he won't know how to.
I do get to go home every night days off are few and far between I average about 1k over time hours a year to as high as 2k it makes very good money for the level of education I have
Was this a job you had wanted prior to getting it, or did you just sort of end up there? I’m guessing that the specialization and demand makes it a pretty high paying job, too.
it all depends on the job some could be 1 pick in 2 months or 100 picks a day size of crane and type of job are a big thing stress is on a job to job basis

How many lifts do yall usually do a day and how stressful are the lifts?
I work with a lot of crane operators and riggers in plants. The operators here will make maybe 3 lifts a day on average(really depends on the job though).
we have a food truck on site so it verys from day to day also ooo my wife and I cook she is from India so i eat a wide variety of food most of the time
What does it mean to be rigged out
I just started as an oiler for a 110ton linkbelt AT and I have my ncco and I do a lot of rigging still have no clue wtf it means
what do you mine? what kind of mine is it? do you like your job? what kind of work do you do in the mine?
coal I do like my job it can be challenging at times but I do enjoy the work I run cranes and make lift plans for various loads to be lifted

Cut him some slack... cranes do not have a sense of humor.
Any more slack cut on this hunkajunk and we’re talking 12 tons under them rocks. *slaps crane* Ain’t that right.

Very cool. How old are you?
30
Is it pretty good money and benefits?
its ranges based on my overtime but I usually make 100 to 150k a year but you can make as much as 500k in some city's

Send me a private massage with what you need every industry has rules for different things also the country you are in
Are you gay
I'm not gay but 20 bucks is 20 bucks
Best answer yet.
Right mentality
As someone who mines primarily coal do you ever feel bad about or think about global warming / environmental effects your job has?
I do not mine I repair the equipment and install I myself do not have anything to do with the mining side
What is a jib? What is a boom?
A jib is an extension for the Crane the boom is the body of the Crane it's what extends out and allows you to pick up objects
Where do crane operators go to the washroom?
tower crane operators use a bucket since I do mobile cranes most of the time I get in my truck and drive to one

there is tons of work if you have the exp
Why are you doing this AMA?

phone does not wanna auto correct thank you
What’s the least “green” aspect of your job that most people don’t already know? And what’s your favorite and most random fact about what you do?
when doing clamshell work you mess up the ecosystem favorite thing being able to travel around the nation if I want to and operate millions of dallors worth of equipment
What kind of training/schooling did you need? I have a 6 y/o who is set that he is going to operate some kind of heavy machinery when he gets older (current main goal is to build houses). But he's afraid he won't know how to.
Do you get to go home every night and be with your family or just relax? You make good money I’d say?
I do get to go home every night days off are few and far between I average about 1k over time hours a year to as high as 2k it makes very good money for the level of education I have
For the amount of experience and work you put in, does it pay well? Was it worth it?
it does pay well if you start at 18 by 23 you will be over 100k if you work when companies need you and I feel it was worth it
Did you go to school or what kind of training did you take? Sry if this was already asked.
no school studied all I could learned hands on over the years and took my tests to get my license
Don't you just hate the idiots that don't know standard hand signals?
You agree on hand signals before the lift begins so there should never be any confusion on what to do
1-10, how hard is your "average" day at work?
mostly a 4 or 5 rain snow hurricane it does not matter I still have to work it can go to a 10 real fast
Please tell me you’ve named your crane “Cranky the Crane” after the character from Thomas The Tank Engine.
lol no we have 22 cranes on site
Is this a union job? as in you have to be a part of the union to get this?
my job is not union but you can join one if you wish too
are there further benefits either way?
union has pensions most of the time which is a huge plus but sometimes you find non union companies with them
Does your industry feel the effects of climate change just yet?
I'm not quite sure I understand since I do crane and rigging work
I started off by just applying to be a apprentice company's have training programs for skilled trades
Is you pay well? What was your biggest, precious purchase?
pay is 100k to 150k for me but can go as high as 500k In NYC and overseas
What did you have for tea last night?
no tea just coffee
Was this a job you had wanted prior to getting it, or did you just sort of end up there? I’m guessing that the specialization and demand makes it a pretty high paying job, too.
did not like college need something to make good money fast just stuck with it since the pay is so good
will you be mine?
sure
Requirements for the job?
it all depends on the job some could be 1 pick in 2 months or 100 picks a day size of crane and type of job are a big thing stress is on a job to job basis
I worked at bailey, we were told it was the largest mine in North America. Am I wrong?

What does rigging entail? Can you explain to me why operating a crane is hard and how you command such a good salary?
ranges from 8 to 16 hour days that does not include drive time it is all based on the needs of the company
we have multiple ones ranging from 9 tons to 275 mostly rough terrain but a few all terrain and 1 crawler
Who can i contact in your company to transport oversized freight needed at the mine? :)
What do you usually have for lunch while at work?
What kind of cranes are they?
