Question

information about coal mine in brief

Answer 1

Coal mining is the process of extracting coalfrom the ground. Coal is valued for its energy content, and, since the 1880s, has been widely used to generate electricity. Steel and cementindustries use coal as a fuel for extraction of iron from iron ore and for cement production. In the United Kingdom and South Africa, a coal mine and its structures are a colliery, a coal mine a pit, and the above-ground structures the pit head. In Australia, "colliery" generally refers to an underground coal mine. In the United States, "colliery" has been used to describe a coal mine operation but nowadays the word is not commonly used
