Perspective changes everything.

“It’s easy to get lost in the details, frustrated over process breakdowns, and burnt out with people problems.

It’s not easy to keep a positive perspective on the hard days. But the hard days are a great reminder that my identity isn’t tied up in how well we move rocks or how much money we stack.

We are here on earth for a bigger purpose, and when I remember that, it brings it all back into perspective.”

“Young people just don’t want to work.”

The 400+ applications we receive monthly says differently.

With hundreds of candidates ranging in age, experience, and location — the desire to work in mining clearly exists.

We believe that mining is one of the most opportunity-filled careers in the United States but there’s still work to be done to spread that message to the masses.

As companies across the country learn new ways to train and develop their people, there’s never been a better time to reshape the outlook on American Mining.

The secret to success? There isn’t one. 

Most of the time success comes from putting your head down and going to work regardless of the challenges at hand. 

Success comes from powering through the bad days, and celebrating the good ones. 

No company, no manger is perfect and the path to success is often as bumpy as an unkept haul road. 

But we’re lucky to have a team of savages who power through the bad days and lead us to the good ones. 💯
