A » Mountaintop removal is a mining technique involving the blasting of mountaintops to access underlying coal seams. The process begins with deforestation and removal of topsoil, followed by explosive blasting to break rock layers. The overburden is then removed using heavy machinery, exposing the coal for extraction. The debris is often deposited in adjacent valleys, impacting ecosystems. This method is efficient but controversial due to environmental concerns.
