The journey begins with an elevator sinking into a well that has a depth equivalent to the Torre Agbar, Sagrada Familia towers and Mapfre together 230 flats.

Once down, enters a labyrinth that more than forty kilometers from the mines of Súria and Sallent and where heavy lorries. The most spectacular are the miners, drilling machines that can boot a ton of ore walls every minute. The miners work with electricity and have clearly improved the rate of extraction compared to the explosives that were used before. Each year drawn more than a million and a half tons of material from underground Catalan. Of these, 700,000 tons of potassium chloride.

A worker colored stripes on the walls of the mine of Iberpotash geologist, explains that correspond to different types of minerals, in different stages of evaporation are deposited in layers over time, the first soluble and less about that stayed longer in solution.

Other person, indicates that the mines are located more than 600 meters below sea level because in this area the package is compact enough salt and galleries can last longer. However, where the potash is removed at a higher level. Since there are saline packet access by creating so-called "fronts of attack": galleries that start extracting potassium salt. Then the mineral leads to trucks or conveyors that carry potash to the shaft, and from there to the outside.

Generally, excessive noises, it can cause that the miners can't cocentrate in the work and this can cause risks.
How many is safer and healthier the working environment, the less likely there will be absenteeism, accidents and low performance, and thus save costs.

The basic operations in any mine are three:
_ Boot:

Is split rock rocky massif where we find it

_ Load :

Is collect rock boot floor, and his transfer to a means of transport.

_ Transport:

Is the operation which moves or pulled up outside the mine.

The mining activity of the Bages, part of the mines it is the most important for the region. A study in the year 2014 calculate in 4.075 workers the sum of direct and induced occupation of mining activity. The operations with promoters carried out until 2013 grow up to 147 million of euros and the 90% of them of promoters of Catalonia. The exports, with a value near 200 million of euros.
