Azikho izimboni zamaminerali, empeleni akukho mboni, kanti ezinye izinkuni ezikhiqizwe endaweni zisetshenziselwa ukwakha nokwakha imikhiqizo yezinkuni nefenisha. Kunemboni yokudoba olwandle oluzungeze lesi siqhingi, ikakhulukazi ukubamba i-tuna, iningi lazo liqhwa futhi ligcinwe endaweni yokugcina ebandayo eseduze, kanti ezinye ziyomiswa futhi zifakwe emanzini anosawoti esiqhingini. Ngokuyinhloko yonke imikhiqizo ithunyelwa kwamanye amazwe. Impahla engeniswayo ifaka phakathi ukudla, uphethiloli, izimoto, okokusebenza kagesi, imishini, okokugqoka nosimende.
