· Pre mining environmental setting of the mine The Dave Johnston Coal Mine permit area contains 5490 ha 13 588 acres and is located 22 km 14 miles north of Glenrock Wyoming on the southwestern edge of the Powder River Basin Coal Field Surface topography in the area is characterized by low rolling hills and sandstone capped buttes
Surface extracting is the most widely used mining method globally Surface mining can be divided into open pit and open cut methods of metal and coal mining The surface mining will be more complicated when the depth of the pit increases and the miners need
·Surface coal mining causes vegetation disturbance while providing an energy source Thus much attention is given to monitoring the vegetation of surface coal mining regions Multitemporal satellite imagery such as Landsat time series imagery is an operational environment monitoring service widely used to access vegetation traits and ensure vegetation
·Experts caution therefore that coal mine management cannot be limited in scope without taking into account their spatiotemporal processes While surface coal mining causes massive land damage to the environment reclamation of the area disturbed by mining is still less than 1/3 of the area disturbed Fig 10 There is a heavy price to be
·The paper may propose measures to mitigate the negative effects of coal mining on groundwater and surface ecosystems emphasizing the importance of sustainable mining practices to protect the natural environment The findings underscore the need for improved waste management and environmental regulations to mitigate the adverse impacts of
·Anthropogenic changes to soil properties and development can dominate soil systems particularly in coal mining impacted landscapes of the Appalachian region of the United States Historical mining operations deposited spoils which are developing into mine soils in chronosequences allowing for a correlation between emplacement age and rates of change in
·In the management of the surface environment of coal mining subsidence areas the primary task is to analyze the spatial and temporal evolution law of the surface environment Remote sensing RS techniques and geographic information systems GISs provide an effective approach to monitoring the surface environmental changes in mining areas
·Mine planning also includes mine closure and post mining reclamation waste management planning for new land uses investigating new water uses optimizing scheduling and utilization of mining equipment planning the installation of renewable energy projects in the reclaimed mining areas or optimizing the utilization of exhausted mine pits in areas outside pit
Surface coal mining Ores recovered by mining include metals coal oil shale gemstones limestone dimension stone rock salt potash gravel and clay for Standardization ISO For example ISO 9000 and ISO 14001 which certify an auditable environmental management system involve short inspections although they have been
3 ·Maximising coal recovery in challenging geologies represents a significant efficiency opportunity for most coal mining operations to increase the value of their resource As the easy coal is mined out mine operators need to become more skillful at mining thin steep deep and undulating seams productively and without sacrificing coal quality

·This paper provides an overview of coal waste management practices with two case studies and an estimate of management cost in 2010 US dollars Processing of as mined coal typically results in considerable amount of coarse and fine coal processing wastes because of in seam and out of seam dilution mining Processing plant clean coal recovery values run
·Surface strip coal mining can disturb landscapes extensively typically affecting ten times more land than that affected by underground coal mining Tongway and Ludwig 2011 Surface mines have a disturbance potential that is unmatched by any other human activity except for urban development Surface strip coal mining may involve the use of
·Globally studying the impact of coal mining on groundwater remains challenging This is because the exploitation of coal resources and the sustainable development of groundwater resources involve economic social and environmental aspects Over the last few decades the number of publications on groundwater related studies in coal mining areas has
On completion participants may undertake job roles such as team leader or supervisor or continue into higher qualifications such as Diploma of Surface Operations Management Qualification Structure To complete the course learners must be complete a total of 13 units of competency as follows
·The surface coal mining operation and the underground coal mining operation and the surface effects due to underground coal mining operations are the coal mining operations that are applicable to the coal mines all over India the plan for mining and management of sustainability [6] In order to perform a quantitative study about the
·Detecting surface coal mining areas SCMAs using remote sensing data in a timely and an accurate manner is necessary for coal industry management and environmental assessment
