About The MINES Group
Some Company Background
While many companies work from the outside in, taking orders and producing products and services, The MINES Group works from the inside out—like MINES, we dig deep, and like the industry we serve, our “Multinational Integrated Network of Engineers and Scientists” (MINES) provides a broad range of quality services to the mining industry.
