Sound Level: Noise known as a major health hazard is spot specific in case of underground mining where the operators are exposed to continuous background noise while high level short duration noise peaks are common in case of surface mining. The human ear is most sensitive in 2 to 5 KHz range and less sensitive in high and low frequencies.

Noise levels generally vary with time, so noise measurement data are reported as time-averaged values to express overall noise levels. There are several ways to do this. For example, the results of a set of repeated sound-level measurements may be reported as L 90 = 75 dBA, meaning that the levels were equal to or higher than 75 dBA for 90 ...
