A » Open-pit mining is a surface mining technique used to extract minerals and rocks from the earth by removing them from an open pit or borrow. This method involves the excavation of large areas to access mineral deposits located close to the surface, making it suitable for extracting materials like coal, copper, and iron. The process is cost-effective but can have significant environmental impacts due to landscape alteration and habitat disruption.
