What Is Surface Mining? | Types of Surface Mining

These mining categories are: strip mining, open-pit mining, mountaintop removal, dredging and high wall mining. All methods of surface mining will remove the waste material, or overburden, above the desired resource. Surface mining is often preferred to sub-surface (underground mining) by mining companies for several reasons.

Selection of new appropriate mining method: case of …

The selection of the adequate mining method is the cornerstone for mine planning and design. This selection depends on geological, geotechnical, economical, and environmental parameters. This paper's main purpose is to select the most appropriate mining method for the south body of Boukhadra underground mine (NE Algeria). To do …

Highwall mining is an adaptation of auger mining. Instead of an auger hole, an entry into the coal seam is made by a continuous miner, remotely operated from a cabin at the surface. The cut coal is transported by conveyors behind the miner to the outside. Using a television camera, the operator can see and control the miner's progress.
