On Influence of the Earth’s Surface Relief on the Volumes of Overburden at Coal Open Pit Mining with Land-Saving Dumping

On Influence of the Earth’s Surface Relief on the Volumes of Overburden at Coal Open Pit Mining with Land-Saving Dumping

Opencast mining of coal deposits is a priority in Russia, while providing coal to the domestic and foreign markets. Despite reasonable concerns about air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, coal use will continue to be significant in the future. Consequently, it is necessary to introduce less po...
