With changing attitudes and increased support from companies, the mining industry is becoming a more inclusive and diverse field.
As the mining industry has traditionally been considered a physically demanding field, it is important to recognize that success in this industry is not solely based on physical abilities. While there may be initial hurdles to overcome, hard work and dedication can lead to recognition and respect within the industry. Although women may experience some conscious or unconscious bias, with perseverance and determination, they will get the desired support.
