"Arbeit im Fels" oder "Fellsbergwerk" Explanation: A "hard-rock mine" is any mine that is underground and where the ore is hard stone, not a pit on the surface but also not including underground coal mines (coal is relatively soft). As at these sites: http://www.admin.mtu.edu/urel/catalogs/ugrad/cd/mg.html http://www.igc.apc.org/mining/links.html http://www.golddredger.com/menu.htm http://206.231.196.20/calgary/admin/ClassIndex.cfm As bleher said: Ernst – "Wörterbuch der industriellen Technik" translates "hard rock mining" as "Arbeit im Fels". "Fellsbergwerk" also sounds good to me. - HTH - Dan |
