Summary

Specialized worker who mines magnetic clay (clay), the raw material for pottery and building materials, and handles washing, sorting, and transportation.

Description

Magnetic clay extractors are specialists who mine clay-like raw materials called magnetic clay. Based on geological surveys and mining plans at the extraction site, they operate heavy machinery such as shovels and backhoes, or manually dig to extract the magnetic clay. After extraction, they perform washing and sieving operations to sort it, adjusting fragments and moisture content. They deliver materials meeting quality standards to transportation companies via truck. Safety management and environmental conservation measures are also important roles.

Future Outlook

Demand for clay resources for pottery, building materials, etc., remains stable, but advancing environmental regulations and mechanization require even greater efficient mining techniques and safety management knowledge.
