Where is coal obtained?
Coal is obtained through mining. It is typically found underground in coal mines and can be extracted through surface mining or underground mining methods. The process of coal mining involves the removal of coal from the earth's crust for various industrial purposes such as electricity generation and steel production.
Where is coal located and how you recover it?
Coal is typically found in underground deposits known as coal seams or in layers near the Earth's surface. To recover it, mining methods such as surface mining (strip mining, open-pit mining) or underground mining (room and pillar mining, longwall mining) are used. These methods involve extracting coal by removing layers of soil, rock, or overburden to access the coal seams.
How is Coal captured?
Coal is captured through the process of mining, either through surface mining or underground mining methods. In surface mining, machinery is used to remove layers of earth and extract the coal below. In underground mining, tunnels and shafts are created to access the coal seams. Once extracted, the coal is processed and transported for various uses.
How coal is recovered?
Coal is recovered through either underground mining or surface mining. Underground mining involves digging tunnels and shafts to access coal seams deep underground, while surface mining involves removing layers of soil and rock to access coal deposits near the earth's surface. Once the coal is reached, it is extracted using heavy machinery and transported to processing facilities.
