dc.description.abstractMining operation in Turkey has been performed since early human history. Civilizations governing this fertile land in old times had several mines and especially metallic mines' products were shipped to Egypt through Mediterranean ports. In those very old days there were surely very limited workplace safety rules. However in modern times, mining operations in Turkey have been regulated to be safer, so all the rules and related legislations have been implemented accordingly to obtain safer working environment in open and underground mines. Besides current mining law and regulatory rules, two big mine disasters were happened in Turkey in 2014. Total lost of life were 319 in these two disasters (Guguen, 2015, Akgul, 2015). There are official reports describing these accidents together with their explanations. In this paper however accident risk in mines and mine engineers' positions in mines were covered by coherent brief analyses. Responsibilities of mine engineers described in the mining law in Turkey. Due to engineering implication in mine operations some uncertainty cases appeared and they were discussed on the bases of authors experiences here.en_US
