The word you are looking for may be "excavating".
That's a funny question. Did you mean "mined" or "minded"? If you meant mined, it's called strip mining. Funny name, huh? If you meant minded, no idea! Hope it helps!
The process of removing rock and soil from the Earth's surface to expose materials to be mined is called surface mining. This method is commonly used when the desired minerals or metals are found relatively close to the surface, making it more cost-effective than underground mining. Surface mining practices can have environmental impacts such as habitat destruction and soil erosion.
ore
Rock material mined for its constituent elements or minerals is called "ore."
The solution of the mined rock salt (NaCl) is called brine.

rock
The rock that is being mined is called Unobtainium.
Ores that are near the Earth's surface can be obtained by scraping away the soil, blasting the ore into small pieces, and removing it with heavy equipment and taking it to smelting plants. Ores that are located deep in the Earth must be mined from tunnels in deep rock.
Melted rock beneath the earth is called magma.
The process of removing rock and soil to expose materials that will be mined is known as excavation. This typically involves the use of heavy machinery and equipment to dig, remove, and transport the overlying materials to access the desired mineral or resource underneath. Environmental considerations are important during this process to minimize impacts on the surrounding area.
Anthracite coal is a type of metamorphic rock that is mined from the earth and burned as fuel. It is a hard and premium type of coal known for its high carbon content and low impurities, making it a popular choice for heating and energy production.
