The form of mine campaign was quite exciting and varied, from infographics to podcast, video to virtual mine touring, which might help me study without even realizing it, it was fun and flowing while reading or listening to the information that it was conveyed eye catching, brief, and easy to understand. It was just refreshing, but still contained abundant knowledge including mining unique facts, mining issues, mining history, mining’s role in the national economy, and mining’s impact on the people. —Lisa Larissa Nugraheni
