Heart 520x361 Where Is The Heart Located?Despite the fact that we should all know some basic information about this vital organ, we simply don’t. However, the fact we know is that we couldn’t live without one.

The heart is a muscular organ which can be considered as a double pump due its role in a body. It represents the center of the circulatory system.

So, where is the heart located? Simplest explanation about its location is that the heart is placed almost in the center of the chest between two longs, but slightly to the left. Looking from outside it is between left breast and breastbone. The heart is protected by the ribs from possible external damage.

magnesium 250x250 Where Is Magnesium Found?Magnesium (symbol – Mg) belongs to the group of alkaline earth metals. It is extremely reactive and doesn’t exist in a pure state in nature so it must be obtained by certain chemical processes. It was isolated for the first time by an English chemist, sir Humphry Davy in 1808.

Magnesium can be found in minerals such as dolomite, magnesite, carnallite, epsomite, kieserite. It can also be found in seawater and as a silicate in asbestos and talk.

Important fact is that magnesium is a crucial element for nutrition of human beings.

Sources of magnesium in food are spinach, soybeans, pumpkin seeds, brazil nuts, white beans, black beans, almonds, artichokes, salmon, sweet chocolate, tofu etc.

mine 250x250 The dangers of mining – the right equipment is CRUCIAL to your success.I knew a guy not long ago who was working the same shift as me. However instead of spending his money on proper equipment he would drink it away. This of course brings out a huge problem that I see with miners nowadays. Not enough people are taking their safety seriously.

We seem to think that we’re in the age of technology but that doesn’t make mining much safer. In fact the conditions we are exposed to are still very poor and proper maintenance of equipment is essential to our productivity and well-being.
For me there are a few pieces of equipment which are the most important (at least for me) this is because they are what allows me to be mobile, flexible and work in practically any environment.

What it really comes down to for me and a lot of other miners is the following;

1. The type of shoes you have, they should have a strong grip and steel toed covering to protect and prevent any broken toes

2. The glasses you wear over your eyes. I’ve personally seen rocks break right through cheap glasses; make sure your investment isn’t one you’ll regret later.

3. Mask over your face and the oxygen tank you bring down with you. Always make sure it’s in working order in case of emergency.

All of these different pieces of equipment are equally important when you’re working or getting back up. Most of the time as miners we don’t take the time to go over and make sure there are no breaks, cracks or problems with our equipment instead we forget about them until our next descent.

This is a dangerous strategy and by doing so you’re walking a very thin line. Check, maintain and stay safe by using the companies listed at mining distributors.
