Mining equipment is used to extract natural resources such as coal, metals, and minerals. Some of the minerals and metals extracted include iron ore, bauxite, titanium, copper, gold, platinum, sand, gravel, salt, and other non-metallic products. Rental mining equipment constitutes a significant share of the global mining equipment market. The high cost of capital, maintenance cost, and overhead cost attached with the ownership of mining equipment have compelled end-users to rent mining equipment instead.
