The coal mining industry involves the extraction of coal from the earth, which is a fossil fuel used primarily for electricity generation and steel production. Coal is found in underground deposits or surface mines, and the process of mining can be labor-intensive and requires specialized equipment. Coal mining has significant economic implications, providing jobs and energy resources in many regions. However, it also raises environmental concerns, including land degradation and air pollution. Efforts are being made to transition to cleaner energy sources, impacting the future of the coal mining industry.
