Explanation:
On the page you can see how Sea-Can containers can be modified with doors and windows etc. So I am picturing a container being shipped to the mine for use as an office from which the machinery can be operated remotely. http://seacan.com/shipping-containers/intermodal-container-m... "Sea-Can can provide shipping container customization by modifying your container to fit your specific need. We do custom container sizes, garage doors, man doors, roll-up doors, windows, HVAC, lighting and electrical. Contact us and let us know your specifications and we will make sure you get what you need."
