Brady Mining Announces Name Change to US Synthetic Mining and Appoints
New Regional Sales Representative for Eastern United States
OREM, Utah, Feb. 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --Brady Mining, leading
supplier of diamond roof-bolt products for underground mining
operations, today announced a name change to US Synthetic Mining. The
company also announced the appointment of Danny Price as a regional
sales manager for the eastern United States.
US Synthetic Mining will continue to support all existing customers,
operating under the US Synthetic Mining name. The goal of this change
is to leverage the engineering strengths and marketing outreach of US
Synthetic Corporation. US Synthetic Corporation is a leading supplier
of diamond technology for oil and gas drilling. The company is an
American manufacturing company founded in 1978. US Synthetic's
technology and engineering focus has made it the leader in
polycrystalline diamond products with extensive experience and
advanced diamond technologies for the mining and energy industries.
Due to its extreme hardness, wear resistance and thermal conductivity,
US Synthetic's diamond products are used in a wide range of
applications and are ideal for hard roof conditions in underground
mining and extreme operating conditions in other industries.
US Synthetic Mining will continue to advance the technology in
polycrystalline diamond tools for underground mining, including the
family of Viper HR vacuum roof-bolt bits. In addition to its current
technologies, US Synthetic is also conducting research and development
projects on other diamond applications in underground mining.
"As we continue to grow and to diversify our products within the
mining industry, we wanted to better identify our products with the
superior quality and technology built into US Synthetic products,"
said Russ Myers, Managing Director, US Synthetic Mining. "As we focus
on these growth opportunities, it also made sense to add a seasoned
mining professional to help us introduce the value created through

underground mining."
Price joins the US Synthetic team with more than 10 years of
experience in underground mining. Prior to his appointment at US
Synthetic, Price worked in underground and management positions at a
number of eastern mines. From his extensive experience in underground
mining, Price understands the challenges facing US Synthetic
customers, in reducing costs while accelerating the pace of coal
development and in dealing with unforgiving roof conditions that make
mining difficult and expensive. Danny is based in West Virginia and
will serve the eastern United States.
