This is especially true when it comes to shaft construction. The shaft sinking methods used often represent the longest and most complex phase of the alignment, putting considerable pressure on the overall project time and costs. By using fast shaft sinking technologies, mining companies can reduce construction time, minimise costs and accelerate the start of production. That is why this issue of Mining Report Gl\u00fcckauf focuses on new trends in shaft sinking technology &#8230;<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/2025.mining-report.de\/english\/current-issue-2-2025\/\" class=\"shortc-button small white\">Read more<\/a>\n<p>With my best regards \/\/ Mit freundlichem Gl\u00fcckauf<br \/>\nDipl.-Ing.
