A Central Resource for the Cave Mining Community

The Cave Mining Forum is a platform to foster knowledge sharing among professionals across all cave mining disciplines. More than just a hub for information, it is a community where professionals from industry, academia, and consulting can freely connect and learn from one another. Sign up for updates and share your thoughts through a survey, as we work to shape the forum to best meet your needs.

Monitoring and Instrumentation

The Cave Mining Forum’s mission is to strengthen the connection between and collaboration among those working in the cave mining community.

We do this by providing a space where members can connect, exchange ideas and perspectives, and access resources and information — all of which help advance individual careers and the cave mining field.

Our purpose is to strengthen the sense of cave mining community among those working in the cave mining field.

This field has a rich heritage of innovation and discovery. The forum works to continue that heritage by providing a way of connecting members outside of projects and conferences that supports their work and professional development, whether a seasoned expert or someone new to cave mining.

Anything worthwhile takes time to develop. Our vision is to build something together—an authentic community where members share their experiences and learn from one another.
