mining, is a surface mining technique of extracting rock or minerals from the earth by their removal from an open-air pit, sometimes known as a borrow. Open-pit mines are used when deposits of commercially useful ore or rocks are found near the surface. The mined material is moved by the use of various mining equipment. Trainee
