To open the underground door on Mythology Island in Poptropica, you need to retrieve the trident from Poseidon. Once you have the trident, use it to unlock the door and access the underground area. Good luck!
How scientists might try to validate the scientific use of carbon-14 in dating?
The results of carbon-14 dating are compared with dendrochronology data.
How do you open the first ancestral chest in Fable 2 in the first tomb?
To open the first ancestral chest in Fable 2 in the first tomb, you need to collect all five of the tomb seals. These seals are located in various locations within the tomb and can be obtained by solving puzzles, defeating enemies, or interacting with objects. Once you have all five seals, you can use them to open the chest and claim the reward inside.
Where did old stone age people travel across open oceans in rafts or canoes?
Old Stone Age people, such as those from Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, are believed to have traveled across open oceans in rafts or canoes. They relied on their knowledge of the seas, navigation skills, and use of natural resources to undertake these oceanic journeys. This demonstrates their advanced maritime capabilities and the ability to adapt to different environments.
What is a quarrie?
A quarry is a large open pit mine where rocks are dug up for use by humans.
What determines whether an openpit or shaft mine is used?
Well since guy rather have a loos whole and usually guys will work in a mine they would use a open pit mine since it is bigger than a shaft ( small whole mine)
When might miners chose to use open pit mining rather than strip mining to obtain ore?
Miners might choose to use open pit mining when the ore is found near the surface and forms a wide area, making it more cost-effective to extract using this method. Open pit mining is also preferred when the ore body is not very deep, minimizing the need for extensive excavation.
Why are open pit mines used more?
There are some things that are difficult to mine via the open pit method. But when it is possible to apply the techniques of the open pit mine to recover rock and minerals, this mining type is good for basically two reasons. One is because it is relatively safer, and the other relates to the scale of the mine. We recover materials from the ground every day, and have done so for thousands of years. The open pit mine presents far fewer hazards than underground mining, and the reasons are fairly obvious. In a shaft or drift, there are many things that can go wrong and cause loss of life and/or equipment. There are far fewer in an "outdoor" mining activity as it is practiced in an open pit. The largest mines in the world are essentially big holes in the ground. These open pit mines use the economy of scale to produce materials, copper being one. The concentrations of copper are not high, so it is essential to move large volumes of ore to recover the metal in a manner that makes it cost effective on the site, and competitive on the world market to do so.
Which mine is a series of terraces that have been carved into the earth and raw ore is removed from that pit walls by use of explosives?
This is the open pit mine. Surveys are conducted (including drilling) and mapping is done. Then, with the location of the ore bodies pinpointed, material is removed, drilling and blasting create the ore pile, and the ore is loaded and hauled to the crusher. From there is it off to the processing plant.
What kind of mine is a quarry?
A quarry is a type of open-pit mine used to extract minerals or rocks from the earth's surface. It typically involves the use of explosives to break up the material for extraction. Quarries are commonly used to produce building materials such as limestone, sand, and granite.
Why is open pit mining is used?
like strip mining open-pit mining involves removing the surface layer of soil. Miners then use explosives to break up the underlying rock and recover the ore. As they dig a deep hole or pit to mine the ore they build roads up on the sides of the pit. Trucks carry the ore to the surface. Ores of copper and iron are obtained by open-pit mining. (read in earth science book by Mcdougal Littell.)
What type of mining can i use with an horizontal layer of coal close to the surface?
You can use surface mining methods such as open-pit mining and strip mining for a horizontal layer of coal close to the surface. These methods involve removing overburden to access the coal seam, making them suitable for shallow coal deposits.
What is the process called in which miners use earthmoving equipment to dig a huge hole?
The process is called open-pit mining, where miners use earthmoving equipment to extract minerals or ore from the ground by digging a large open pit. This method is commonly used for extracting minerals such as copper, gold, and iron.
How deep is Martha mine?
I am not sure how deep Martha mine is because every day at around 12:00 the miners use dynamite to expose more rock at the bottem of the pit so its depth changes every day.
What do miners use to mine diamonds?
Miners use various methods such as open-pit mining or underground mining to extract diamonds from the Earth. This process involves using heavy machinery, explosives, and other tools to reach the diamond-bearing ore located deep within the Earth's crust. Diamonds are then extracted and processed for use in jewelry or other industrial applications.
How do you use strip mining in a sentence?
Strip mining involves removing the surface layer of earth to extract valuable minerals or resources. An example sentence could be: "The company plans to use strip mining to extract coal from the open pit mine."
