Atlantis Mining also mined for Bisichi Mining at Blackwattle Colliery. This operation comprised the mining of numerous mini pits. Production was 120 000 tons per month with approximately "600 000 m³" of overburden being moved per month. In January 2013 the Elandspruit Colliery commenced for IPC (Pty) Ltd, with production of "60 000 tons" per month at a stripping ratio of 3,2:1 and

Because an open pit mine is open to the air larger machinery can be used to operate the mine. This is a real advantage to mining companies who often use large trucks to carry debris away from the mine. According to Corporation the model 777 off road truck commonly use in open pit mines can carry a payload of 200,000 pounds.

Environmental impacts of mining can occur at local, regional, and global scales through direct and indirect mining practices. Impacts can result in erosion, sinkholes, loss of biodiversity, or the contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water by the chemicals emitted from mining processes. These processes also have an impact on the atmosphere from the emissions of carbon which have

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 (the overburden) 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.. Surface mining began in the mid-16th century [dubious

Open-pit, open-cast or open cut mining is a surface mining technique of extracting rock or minerals from the earth by their removal from an open pit or borrow.. This form of mining differs from extractive methods that require tunnelling into the earth, such as long wall mining.Open-pit mines are used when deposits of commercially useful ore or rocks are found near the surface.
