Mining is the process of extracting valuable minerals or other geological materials from the earth. It involves various techniques such as drilling, blasting, and excavation to access deposits underground or from the surface. These minerals can include coal, metals, gemstones, and oil shale, among others. Mining plays a crucial role in supplying raw materials for various industries, from construction to manufacturing, but it also poses environmental and social challenges that require careful management and regulation.
