Mining can be defined as the process of extracting minerals and resources from within the surface of the earth. The process of mining has evolved to a large scale process, employing various machinery and equipment that require expert knowledge and skilled operations. Mining in the ancient times was carried out with simple hand held tools. This scale of mining was restricted to a small scale as the miners experienced many problems with regard to use and availability of equipment and understanding the mine area. They had no instruments to gauge the depth of the mineral bed and also were ill equipped with heavy duty drilling equipments.
Mining has been categorized into various sectors based on the technique of mining employed. Mining can be classified broadly into surface, sub-surface and underground mining. Surface mining is associated with extracting minerals they are available near or with close proximity to the earth’s surface. The main machinery involved here are drills, earthmovers, JCBs and various other equipment that are actually extract the minerals from the ore seems like pumps, tractors and high end machinery.
Sub-surface mining deals with extracting minerals that are at a considerable distance from the surface of the earth. The main equipments used here are drills, earthmovers, tractors etc. in addition to these equipments explosives are used to excavate the land and render the land ready for mining. 
Underground mining is considered as the type of mining that extracts resources and minerals that are embedded deep into the earth’s surface. High profile machinery is used out of necessity in these mine.
Mining equipments are available at either at a wholesale or retail deal. Newly established mining firms generally opt to buy equipments at a wholesale rate. They basically require a lot of machinery, ranging from the basic infrastructure material to all the complex high-end material that is involved in the process of mining.
Dealers in mining equipment generally make themselves available over the internet. This provides as a convenient meeting place for prospective buyers and sellers.
