With more than 1,000 large mining machines operating around the world, our equipment has proven to withstand the extreme conditions of open-pit mining, from dusty and dirty environments, to severe vibrations, to temperatures ranging from -50° C to +50° C.
Surface mining is a process whereby soil and rock overlying the mineral deposit are removed. There are two principle types of surface mining, strip mining and open-pit mining (see Fig. 8.8).Strip mining is the process of mining a seam of mineral by removing a long strip of overlying soil and rock.
2020-9-28 Any material that is being extracted from the mining process cannot be grown through agricultural processes, which is why the mining industry still exists today. And with the speedy advancements in technology, various mining processes have been enhanced significantly, making some of them very effective in acquiring the needed materials. One of these processes is the open pit mining process.

The application of sound geotechnical engineering practice is considered to be an integral component of Part 2 of the Mines Safety and Inspection Act 1994 (MSIA). It is emphasised that this guideline is not totally inclusive of all factors concerning the application of geotechnical engineering in open pit mining.

2013-1-6 Open pit mines can be used in coal mining, and they are used extensively in "hard rock" mining for ores such as metal ores, copper, gold, iron, aluminum, and many minerals. In a open pit coal mine, the pit bottom would be the bottom mined coal seam elevation, since it is usually feasible to extract multiple seams when surface mining

Summary: The initial open pit mine at Quebrada Blanca (the Quebrada Blanca Phase 1 operation or QB1) commenced operation in 1994, exploiting supergene copper mineralization. To date, operations at the mine have used a heap leach and dump leach and solvent extraction/electrowinning (SX/EW) process. The supergene ore is now depleted and mining
