2.-They use heavy equipmet, like trucks to take topsoil to a special place where it will be saved until mining is finished in this area. Also drills and explosives are place in tho holes to break the overburden.

3.-Tunnels are used for traveling through the mine.

4.-Conveyor belts takes out coal from the mine.

5.-Three different types of underground mining are slope, drift and shaft. In a slope mine a tunnel slants down from the surface to the coal seam.
