Read MoreThe fundamental objective of coal prospecting is to discover coal resources through a search. In areas where coal mining has not been previously practiced, the search process should result in obtaining coal samples that give reasonable evidence of the existence of a coal seam. Once a seam has been discovered, considerable further work is necessary in
Read MoreMining and processing of coal Coal is typically extracted from underground or surface mines. Underground mining methods include room and pillar, longwall, and retreat mining, while surface mining methods include strip mining, mountaintop removal, and open-pit
