What Does USBM Stand For?

USBM stands for US Bureau Of Mines

The USBM, or US Bureau of Mines, was a federal agency within the United States Department of the Interior, established to promote the efficient and environmentally responsible development of mineral resources. The bureau conducted research, provided data and analysis on mining practices, and developed safety standards to protect miners and improve mining technology. Although it ceased operations in 1996, the USBM's legacy continues to influence mining policy and practices in the United States.
