History of mining

Mining started over 43000 years ago. It started with the first people to walk this earth. They often mined for certain resources like food. In the United States mining boomed in the west and in no time took over the whole United States, from the California gold rush to the current oil drilling going on in Alaska. Mining really improved our economy and employed many people.
