Most of the times, strip mining has positive and negative consequences. Usually, the viewers get the positive aspect of strip mining, and the performers are affected by the loneliness and long nights of working 12 hour shifts. Err, my sources say that it's actually not that lonely, and the pay is good.... So, I guess strip mining is only positive.
it means i love you
Room and pillar mining is when pillars of rock are left standing to support the roof. Between the pillars, coal or ore is cut out and removed leaving spaces known as rooms.

Underground mining is very expensive, and "room and pillar" methods only permit removal of a portion of what is being mined- something had to hold up the roof.
Coal is obtained through mining. It is typically extracted from underground mines using various methods such as longwall mining or room and pillar mining. Once the coal is extracted, it is processed and prepared for use as a source of energy.
Forms of subsurface mining include drift mining, slope mining, shaft mining, and room and pillar mining. These methods involve accessing minerals or resources beneath the Earth's surface through tunnels, shafts, or other underground workings.
P. W Kauffman has written: 'Room and pillar retreat mining (a manual for the coal industry)'
Surface mining methods for coal include strip mining, open-pit mining, and mountaintop removal. Subsurface mining methods involve underground mining techniques such as room and pillar mining, longwall mining, and shaft mining. Each method has its own advantages and challenges in extracting coal from the earth.
Safer, more productive, more economical.
It should be bord and pillar, but for some reason it has been used as board and pillar. IMO it was a mistake but carried through now.
Coal is typically found in underground deposits known as coal seams or in layers near the Earth's surface. To recover it, mining methods such as surface mining (strip mining, open-pit mining) or underground mining (room and pillar mining, longwall mining) are used. These methods involve extracting coal by removing layers of soil, rock, or overburden to access the coal seams.

Shaft mines typically use hoisting systems to transport miners and equipment down the shaft and to bring ore back to the surface. Once underground, ore bodies can be located using drilling and exploration techniques. Extraction of the ore is typically done using mining methods such as room and pillar mining or longwall mining.
