"If you can use recycled materials, you don't have to mine ores, cut trees and drill for oil as much," says Jeffrey Morris of Sound Resource Management, a consulting firm based in Olympia, Washington.

In the construction process of oil and gas drilling, the joint drill wear, eccentric wear and threaded partial adhesion caused drilling damage and then evolved into the major mine accidents.

A special drill is being sent to the copper and gold mine in northern Chile to dig a new shaft and get the miners to safety.
