Surface mine design principles emanate from the operational characteristics of surface mining, which are drilling and blasting, spoil handling, coal removal, and haulage. Except in a few circumstances, overburden in surface mining requires the rock to be fractured by explosives to allow it to be excavated.

Jul 06, 2016Before that can happen, however, the ores must be excavated from the ground. Typically, this is done through two basic techniques: sub-surface (underground) and surface mining. Surface mining is both the less expensive of the two and the go-to method when the desired minerals are located near the surface of the Earth.

Sub-Level Caving Subsidence reaches surface at the Ridgeway underground mine. Using this method, mining is planned to extract rock from the stopes without filling the voids; this allows the wall rocks to cave in to the extracted stope after all the ore has been removed. The stope is then sealed to prevent access. Stope and fill [ edit]

Underground Mining. Sub-surface mining consists of digging tunnels or shafts into the earth to reach buried ore deposits. Ore, for processing, and waste rock, for disposal, are brought to the surface through the tunnels and shafts. Sub-surface mining can be classified by the type of access shafts used, and the extraction method or the technique

Surface mining is done by removing (stripping) surface vegetation, dirt, and if necessary, layers of bedrock in order to reach buried ore deposits. Techniques of surface mining include: open- pit mining, quarrying or gathering building materials from an open-pit mine, strip mining and mountain removal, commonly associated with coal mining.

Shaft Mining Shaft mining is a form of underground mining where shafts are pushed vertically from top to bottom to excavate the ores and minerals. It is also called shaft sinking. It is best suited for concentrated minerals such as iron, coal, etc. which can be found at the depth of the earth's surface. It is found mostly all over the world.
