There are two principle types of surface mining, strip mining and open-pit mining (see Fig. 8.8). Strip mining is the process of mining a seam of mineral by removing a long strip of overlying soil and rock. Strip mining is a practical type of mining when the ore body that is to be extracted is near the surface.
