An extensive literature review of international work of mining equipment noise control has been carried out. The sources of noise on percussion rock drills, continuous miners, dust scrubbers and fans, long wall machinery and trackless vehicles are identified. Noise control techniques, for retrofit and for incorporation in equipment, are proposed and noise reductions and order-of-magnitude costs quantified.
