Best Answer

Strip mining involves removing layers of soil and rock to expose a mineral deposit. Large machines, such as excavators and dump trucks, are used to extract the ore. This process can cause significant environmental damage due to the disruption of ecosystems and contamination of water sources from exposed rock and soil.
