Q » What is Fracking in mining?
31 Oct, 2025
A » Fracking, or hydraulic fracturing, is a technique used in mining to extract oil and natural gas from underground rock formations. By injecting high-pressure fluid into these formations, fracking creates fractures in the rock, allowing the trapped oil or gas to flow to the surface. While it significantly boosts resource production, fracking raises environmental concerns, including groundwater contamination and seismic activity. It remains a controversial yet pivotal method in energy extraction.
