Worldwide growth in human population leading to a rise in the consumption of various resources such as coal, gold, copper, and other minerals. This has resulted into a surge in underground mining activities to extract these resources.

One of the major challenges for underground mining equipment is the increasing shift towards renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, which is leading to a decline in demand for coal and other minerals that are typically mined underground. This shift is resulting in a decrease in investments in new underground mining projects. As a result, the demand for underground mining equipment could decline, posing a challenge to the underground mining equipment market.
 

Furthermore, the high cost of underground mining equipment is also a challenge for the market. The equipment used for underground mining is highly specialized and expensive, making it a significant investment for mining companies. In addition, the maintenance and operation costs of underground mining equipment are also high, adding to the financial burden for mining companies. This could lead to a decrease in demand for equipment and hinder the growth of the market.
