The Mining Journal was founded in 1835 in London. Up until 2005 it was owned and managed by independent company, Mining Journal Limited and that year ownership was transferred to publishing company, Mining Communications, which also produces ''Mining Magazine'', ''Mining, People and the Environment'', ''GeoDrilling International'' and ''World Tunnelling/Trenchless World''.〔(Mining Communications "Mining Journal Online" website. )〕〔(Chronology of ''The Mining Journal'' from Mining Communications website. )〕 Since 2008, it has been owned by the Australian company Aspermont, owner of ''Australia's Mining Monthly''. In 1844, the ''Mining Journal'' successfully campaigned for the introduction of the first safety regulations for mines.〔 ''Mining Journal'' is a weekly industry publication, analysing and commenting on the current key business news items in the global mining industry. In addition to direct news from mining and exploration companies around the world, it gathers information from regular correspondents, government departments, international organisations like the World Bank and the United Nations, other media sources, trade organisations and research institutes, as well a host of consultants and product manufacturers. ''Mining Journal'' is accompanied by regular specialist supplements throughout the year. These supplements focus on such aspects as countries, areas of interest and commodities. The ''Mining Journal'' was launched in 1835 under the name of ''Mining Journal and Commercial Gazette''. In 1860 it was renamed to ''Mining Journal'', ''Railway and Commercial Gazette'' and by 1910 it was called ''Mining Journal''. In the early days of ''Mining Journal'', then known as ''Mining Journal and Commercial Gazette'', it carried information on a range of subjects, from mines, machinery and metals prices, to news items and stories of general interest. The early issues also provided a glossary of mining terms, updated regularly, and noted all known mine accidents. In 1963, The Mining Journal Ltd. took over rival publication, ''Mining Magazine'', which had been founded in 1909 by Herbert Hoover, later to become President of the USA, while he was a mining engineer then working in London. In 1935, as a centenary edition, it launched Mining Annual Review and in the 1990s expanded through the launch of ''World Tunnelling'', ''Geodrilling International'', Mining Environmental Management (now ''Mining People and the Environment'') "〔Wilson, A.J.
