#0183;#32;Coal Mining is the term that encompasses the physical extraction or removal of coal from the Earths Surface. When coal is used as fuel in power generation, it is referred to as Steaming or Thermal coal while those which are used to create coke for steel manufacturing is referred to as Coking or Metallurgical Coal. Coal can be mined by both Surface and Underground Mining methods. Surface
#0183;#32;The overall coal mining process consists of several sequential stages: (1) exploration of a potentially economic coal seam to assess minable reserves, environmental issues, marketable reserves, potential markets, and permitting risks; (2) analysis and selection of a mining plan; (3) securing the markets; (4) developing the mine; (5) extracting the coal; (6) processing the coal if necessary; and (7)
Introduction. The methods more commonly associated with coalmining in the past, like the pithead winding gear, cages of men being lowered down, and pit ponies pulling wooden hutches of coal below ground, really only started to appear in the latter half of the 19th century.
Coal mining methods Coal mining and Alaska. In Alaska underground mining was the primary form of coal mining used until about the late 1930s early 1940s ( I was unable to find an exact date.) The method of surface mining was first recorded being used in the Healy River area where it is still in use by the Usibelli Coal Mine.

#0183;#32;Although the United States has the vast coal resource described in the previous chapter, perhaps as much as 4 trillion tons, the key issue for policy makers is the amount of coal that is economically is not a fixed quantity, but depends on the geological resource, the market price, and the cost of mining. The particular characteristics of the coal mining industry create unique
Longwall Mining an overview ScienceDirect Topics. longwall mining Mining. a mining method in which very long rectangular blocks of coal are defined during the development stage of the mine and then extracted in a single continuous operation by an automated cutting head moving parallel to the coal the coal is cut, the working area is protected by a movable, powered roof support system.
#0183;#32;The introduction of the steam engine to hoist coal was a major turning point for the industry. Small steampowered windlasses were successfully tried out about 1770. About 1840 the first cage was used to hoist the loaded car; and from 1840 onward advances
