25/03/2020#0183;#32;The two main types of mining are surface mining and underground mining. Mining is further divided into several other categories including room and pillar mining, slope mining, block caving, quarrying, openpit mining and in situ mining.
Open pit mines can be used in coal mining, and they are used extensively in quot;hard rockquot; mining for ores such as metal ores, copper, gold, iron, aluminum, and many minerals. In a open pit coal mine, the pit bottom would be the bottom mined coal seam elevation, since it is usually feasible to extract multiple seams when surface mining coal.
02/04/2018#0183;#32;Floods: Exploitation of sand deposits for gold, precious stones and other elements. Disadvantages of open pit mining. One of the main disadvantages of this type of mining operation is the environmental impact it causes. Since cyanide, mercury and sulfuric acid are used to remove the wastewater, groundwater and air are contaminated as toxic dust

There are five basic types of surface mining, including openpit mining, strip mining, dredging, mountaintop removal, and high wall mining. All of these methods remove the waste material or the overburden, which is above the desired resource. Often, surface mining is preferred over underground mining, or subsurface mining, for numerous reasons.
Byproduct mining is related to hard rock mining in that open pit or underground mining tunnels are used. In byproduct mining, gold is a secondary find. The main purpose of the mining operation is the recovery of Copper, sand, gravel or other products but significant quantities of Gold exist to make byproduct mining a profitable venture.
Mining Underground Sub Sector Environmental Social Guidelines Page 1 PROCESS DESCRIPTION This guideline covers the open cast mining of ore bearing rock including coal. It excludes quarrying and open cast extraction of construction materials, stone and rock. (The processing of ore after extraction is covered in the Mineral Processing guideline
PDF version. There are four main mining methods: underground, open surface (pit), placer, and insitu 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 river channels, beach sands, or other environments.
