1 of 2. next ›. There are four main mining methods: underground, open surface (pit), placer, and in-situ mining. Underground mines are more expensive and are often used to reach deeper deposits. Surface mines are typically used for more shallow and less valuable deposits. Placer mining is used to sift out valuable metals from sediments in ...

On the other hand, underground coal mining involves finding the coal seams located deeper than 200ft in the ground. With heavy machinery like the BBD 12T Sinker Drill, the ground is broken before the tunnels are dug deeper into the earth. Since the types of equipment involved in the process changes with the depth of coal reserves, this factor ...

mining, process of extracting useful minerals from the surface of the Earth, including the seas. A mineral, with a few exceptions, is an inorganic substance occurring in nature that has a definite chemical composition and distinctive physical properties or molecular structure. (One organic substance, coal, is often discussed as a mineral as well.)

Drilling is the most reliable method of gathering information about a coal deposit and the mining conditions. It provides physical samples of the coal and overlying strata for chemical and physical analysis. Spatial patterns. Numerous factors are associated with a drilling program. One is the spatial pattern of the holes in an exploration area.

Today, coal extraction methods vary depending on whether the mine is an underground mine or a surface mine. The choice of mining method depends primarily on depth, density, overburden, and thickness of the coal seam: seams relatively close to the surface, at depths less than approximately 180 ft, are usually surface mined; coal …

Other underground coal mines are laid out in a checkerboard of rooms and pillars (Fig. 2), and the mining operation involves cyclical, step by-step mining sequences. The rooms are the empty areas from which coal has been mined, and the pillars are blocks of coal (generally 40 to 80 feet on a side) left to support the mine roof.
