Our primary trona bed is located 1,600 feet underground and averages about 10 feet thick. Virtually every day of the year, Green River’s mine workers ride elevators down 170 stories to the mine’s subsurface, which spans about nine miles from north to south, and six miles from east to west. Over the decades of mining trona here, some 2,500 miles of tunnel systems have been created. By contrast, the city of San Francisco has about 1,500 miles of roadway.The two methods used to extract trona are called “room and pillar” mining and longwall mining. Room and pillar mining means that some trona is removed, creating a “room”, and some trona is left behind to form the “pillar” that supports the mine’s tunnels. Longwall mining is done with a 750-foot long machine that removes 100 percent of the ore in its path, making it more efficient than room and pillar mining.
