Mining data and references for your AI assistant
Big Dog Mining MCP server
One free connector that puts two things inside your AI assistant:
- MSHA analytics. Every U.S. mine accident, violation, inspection and employment record MSHA publishes, refreshed weekly. Ask for counts, rates, trends and charts, or search the accident narratives. British Columbia and Quebec mine safety data too.
- Mining Engineer. Search 22 mining engineering references (handbooks, guides, manuals). Answers come back as quoted passages with the book, chapter and page.
