carbonized vegetable matter used as a fuel.

 The new bureau seek an end to the hazards associated with methane gas and
coal dust. (Pag 33, parrafo 1)

 The disposal of waste materials from coal mines is another important issue in
the design of the mining operation. (Pag 38, parrafo 4)

Silica (silice): The dioxide form of silicon, SiO2, occurring especially as quartz sand,
flint, and agate: used usually in the form of its prepared white powder chiefly in the
manufacture of glass, water glass, ceramics, and abrasives.

 The regulation of silica in the mine atmosphere began in the 1930s. (Pag 35,
parrafo 3)

 There are new fears of the possibility that silica dust and diesel particulate
matter may cause cancer after long periods of exposure. (Pag 37, parrafo 1)

Sediment (sedimento): Is solid material that settles at the bottom of a liquid,

especially earth and pieces of rock that have been carried along and then left
somewhere by water, ice, or wind.

 The emphasis of the law are the positive control of the water and sediments
generated on a surface mine, (Pag 38, parrafo 1)

 The pollution of streams with acid drainage and sediment is an important

environmental consideration (Pag 38, parrafo 3)

Slope (pendiente): Primary inclined opening, usually a shaft, connecting the surface
with undergroung workings.
Fuente: BOOK: INTRODUCTORY MINING ENGINEERING
 In mountaintop operations, overburden material must be placed with
minimum impact on the streams and without the possibility of future slope
failures. (Pag 38, parrafo 4)

 The slopes are normally 12 to 14 %, depending on the climbimg capability of

the equipment (Pag 286, parrafo 1)
Topography (topografia): The art or practice of graphic delineation in detail usually
on maps or charts of natural and man-made features of a place or region especially
in a way to show their relative positions and elevations

 The restoration of the mines eliminates both the danger and the unnatural state
of the topography. (Pag 38, parrafo 3)

 In mountaintop operations, extra overburden material should be placed on the

topography with minimum impact on the streams and without the possibility
of future slope failures. (Pag 38, parrafo 4)

Erosion (erosion):Is the gradual destruction and removal of rock or soil in

a particular area by rivers, the sea, or the weather.

 The strategies applied in land recovery are appropriate to use both native and
nonnative species to implement adequate erosion controls. (Pag 38, parrafo 3)

 SMCRA has provided better regulations aimed at restoration of the landscape,

prevention of erosion, use of mined land for higher purposes, and proper
revegetation of mined lands. (Pag 39, parrafo 2)

Copper (cobre): malleable, ductile, metallic element having acharacteristic reddish-

brown color: used in largequantities as an electrical conductor and in themanufacture
of alloys.
Fuente: dictionary.com
 The heaps or dumps ordinarily consist of low-grade metal ores with copper,
gold, or uranium content. (Pag 40, parrafo 3)

 Underground solution mining operations are of two types: mines that use
boreholes to access the deposit and those created in an underground mine.
Copper, uranium, gold, sulfur, and evaporites can be mined in this fashion.
(Pag 42, parrafo 3)

Sulfur (azufre): a nonmetallic element that occurs either free or combined especially
in sulfides andsulfates, is a constituent of proteins, exists in several allotropic forms
including yellow orthorhombic crystals, resembles oxygen chemically but is less
active and more acidic.

potassium, phosphate, sodium, oil shale, gilsonite, native asphalt, bitumens,
bituminous rock, and sulfur. (Pag 28, parrafo 4)

from concentration and crystallization by evaporation from an aqueous solution

substance that contains a great amount of potential energy that can produce
an explosion if released suddenly, usually accompanied by the production
of light, heat, sound, and pressure.

storage, hoisting, and personal protection. (Pag 31, parrafo 2)

 Regulations for surface mining of metal and nonmetal deposits include

sections on air quality, fire prevention, explosives, drilling, haulage,
