In the beginning, surface mining was used, but the mine has been mined with the sublevel caving mining method since the 1960s. In 1985 reserves for the Kiruna Mine were 1,800 million tonnes grading 60–65% iron and 0.2% phosphorus. [26] [1] As of 2018 the Kiruna Mine had Proven and Probable Reserves of 683 million tonnes grading 43.8% iron. [27]

The gold mining rate was 0.71, platinum mining was 0.24 and other mining was 0.35. (For comparison, the rate in the Sixties was around 1.5—see any Chamber of Mines Annual of the period). The reason for the difference is quite clear; the gold mines are much deeper and conditions are both more difficult and dangerous than on the shallower ...
In agriculture, data mining is the use of data science techniques to analyze large volumes of agricultural data. Recent advancements in technology, such as sensors, drones, and satellite imagery, have enabled the collection of large amounts of data on soil health, weather patterns, crop growth, and pest activity.
