underground methods of mining for a wide range of substances,
including metals, nonmetals, and fuels. 
 
Completely up to date, this book presents the latest information on
such technologies as remote sensing, GPS, geophysical surveying,
and mineral deposit evaluation, as well as continuous integrated
mining operations and autonomous trucks. Also included is new
information on landscape restoration, regional planning, wetlands
protection, subsidence mitigation, and much more. 
 
New chapters include coverage of: 
 
* Environmental responsibilities 
* Regulations 
* Health and safety issues 
 
Generously supplemented with more than 200 photographs, drawings,
and tables, Introductory Mining Engineering, Second Edition is an
