The Central Mining Institute is one of the largest research institutes in Poland.
It operates on the basis of the Act on Research Institutes of April 30, 2010, and is supervised by the Minister of State Assets. The activity of GIG covers the most important aspects of mining
and geoengineering, environmental engineering and work safety in industry.

The rich history of the Institute, dating back to 1925, is associated with the establishment of the Barbara Experimental Mine – Centrala Ratownictwa Górniczego and Magnetic Observatory in Mikołów, which was the first unit in Poland to conduct research for work safety in mining. Since 1945, KD Barbara has been operating as part of the Institute, being one of the key elements of its scientific and research structure, and its testing ground is one place in Europe where gas and dust explosion tests can be conducted on a natural scale and in real conditions for all industrial sectors. test machines and devices intended for operation in an explosive atmosphere.

Today, the Institute has a dozen or so research units created by numerous laboratories and laboratories, as part of it, interdisciplinary research centers have been established: Center for Clean Coal Technologies, Center for Environmental Engineering, Silesian Center of Environmental Radiometry of Maria Goeppert-Mayer and the Center for Research on Climate and Renewable Energy Sources.
