Question

Which method is used to extract minerals from stream bends and along coasts?

Answer 1

i think its C: surface mining

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface mining, including strip mining, open-pit mining and mountaintop removal mining, is a broad category of mining in which soil and rock overlying the mineral deposit are removed, in contrast to underground mining, in which the overlying rock is left in place, and the mineral is removed through shafts or tunnels.

Answer 2

Extracting Surface Minerals. Surface mining is just what it sounds like - removing minerals that are near the earth's surface because this is where the ore deposits are located. ... When the ore is found in a wide area but it's not very deep in the ground, strip mining is used.
