Research Guides: Mining Engineering: Article Databases

Article Databases for Mining Engineering

There are several primary engineering databases which contain a lot of information specifically useful to mining engineers. If you need additional subject resources in another engineering field, such as electrical or civil engineering, click on the Getting Started tab and use the links in the "Engineering Research Guides" to go to other research guides. Here are the primary mining engineering article databases:

Compendex
Engineering research abstracts database. Contains references and abstracts taken from over 5,000 engineering journals, conferences and technical reports. Coverage begins in 1884 and includes all fields of engineering.
GeoRef
American Geological Institute's geoscience database containing over 2.2 million citations, many with abstracts, of North America since 1693 and other areas of the world since 1933.
IEEE Xplore
Interdisciplinary database for all engineering fields, but focused on electrical, computer and electronic applications.
Web of Science Core Collection
Major citation database with multidisciplinary coverage of over 12,000 high-impact journals in the sciences.
