Describe 3 different kinds of mines?
Coal mine: A type of mine where coal is extracted from underground or open-pit mines to be used as a source of energy. Gold mine: A type of mine where gold ore is extracted and processed to produce gold, often found in underground mines or as open-pit mines. Diamond mine: A type of mine where diamonds are extracted and processed from volcanic pipes or alluvial deposits, with some mines operating underground while others are open-pit mines.
What is the average temperature in an underground coal mine?
The average mine temperature varies considerably from pit to pit; temperature is dependent on depth of workings and how effective ventilation is. Temperatures at the coal face can be between 13 degrees C and 30 degrees C.
Is there a difference between a pit and a mine?
Yes, a pit is an open excavation in the ground, while a mine is an underground excavation where minerals, metals, or other valuable materials are extracted. Pits are generally shallower than mines and are often used for extracting materials like sand, gravel, or coal closer to the surface.
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 minerals are mined in open pit mines?
There are several, the main ones are coal, chalk and stone for building purposes. Many countries have restrictions on open cast mining and there are regulation for repairing the land afterwards.

What type of mining is used to mine coal?
The type of mining used to mine coal is called surface mining or underground mining. Surface mining involves removing layers of soil, rock, and vegetation to access coal deposits near the surface. Underground mining involves creating tunnels to access coal deposits deep underground.
Where is the best place for f2p to mine coal if less than lvl 60?

What has the author W D Bullock written?
W. D. Bullock has written: 'Integrated open-pit coal mine design'
What did pit ponies do down the mine?
Pit ponies were used to haul carts of coal and other materials in underground mines. They helped transport materials from the working face to the surface since machinery was not always practical in these confined spaces.

What are 2 methods used to mine coal out of the ground to make electricity?
The two typical types of coal mines are tunnel mines, where the coal vein is dug out by tunneling into it, or "Open Pit" mines, where the coal and surrounding rock are dug out in a large pit and separated. The type of mine used is often determined by the hardness of the surrounding rock, hard rock is often avoided and the coal tunneled out of it. Soft rock or soil is more safely and easily handled with open pit mining. This often produces low grade waste known as "culm" which is poor quality carbon deposits.
When was Big Pit National Coal Museum created?
