National Mining Hall of Fame and Museum

This is the official YouTube Channel for the National Mining Hall of Fame & Museum

For over 30 years NMHFM has shared the epic history of US mining with American and International visitors from around the globe: its pivotal role in the westward expansion of the United States, tales of boom and bust, the people who pioneered the industry, the labor struggles, and mining's relationship to our daily lives.

With the evolution of modern mining, the story is changing. We have expanded the narrative to showcase an industry that has made Safety First its priority, proactively addresses environmental concerns utilizing advanced technology like data science to extract minerals with the least impact to the environment and reclaims land disrupted by mining, as well as demonstrating how integral mining is to our modern life. 

Technologies are advancing at a rapid pace and will continue to transform the why, how, and where of mining as well as how we live our lives.
