Depending on what you want to mine dictates how deep you have to mine.

Take coal for an example. - Coal comes in layers the coal at the top is cheap and the coal lower down is more mature and is worth more. Therefore if you want good coal you will have to dig a long way down.Some underground mines are well over one mile deep. 120 metres
