The first section gives an overview of underg round mining methods and practices as used commonly in underground mines, including classification of underground mining methods and brief explanations of the techniques of roomandpillar mining, sublevel stoping, cutandfill, longwall mining, sublevel caving, and block caving. The second
CutandFill Mining. A method of shorthole mining, cutandfill mining is used in irregular or steeply dipping ore zones, especially where the hanging wall limits the use of longheld methods. The ore is mined either in slightly inclined or horizontal slices then it is filled with sand, waste rock, or tailings.
Directional Drilling. Surface directional drilling to drain coalbed gas from reservoirs is only recently used in the United States, Australia, and China, even though the technology, which was used for several decades by the oil and gas industry, can be traced to the nineteenth century.

Blast hole Drilling is a technique used in mining whereby a hole is drilled into the surface of the rock, packed with explosive material, and detonated. The aim of this technique is to induce cracks in the inner geology of the surrounding rock, in order to facilitate further drilling and associated mining activity.
A drilling rig is an integrated system that drills wells, such as oil or water wells, in the earth''s subsurface. Drilling rigs can be massive structures housing equipment used to drill water wells, oil wells, or natural gas extraction wells, or they can be small enough to be moved manually by one person and such are called augers. Drilling rigs can sample subsurface mineral deposits, test rock, soil and groundwater
Surface coal mining generally involves the following sequence of unit operations: (1) clearing the land of trees and vegetation, (2) removing and storing the top layers of the unconsolidated soil (topsoil), (3) drilling the hard strata over the coal seam, (4) fragmenting or blasting the hard strata with explosives, (5) removing the blasted material, exposing the coal seam, and cleaning the top of the coal seam, (6)
Openpit, underwater, and underground mining. These are the three main methods of mining we use to extract our products from the ground. In this Digging Deeper article, we take a look at these different methods and provide a glimpse into what each involves. Mining is at

Drilling blast holes and loading them with explosives. Detonating the blast, followed by ventilation to remove blast fumes. Removal of the blasted rock (mucking). Scaling crown and walls to remove loosened pieces of rock. Installing initial ground support. Advancing rail, ventilation, and utilities.
