Coal Mining Coal can be extracted from the earth either by surface mining or underground mining. Once coal has been extracted, it can be used directly (for heating and industrial processes) or to fuel power plants for electricity. Surface Mining If coal is less than 61 meters (200 feet) underground, it can be extracted through surface mining.

On January 1, 2018, DD Mining finished construction of a coal mine in Kentucky. DD is legally required to remove any metal used in building the mine, seal the entrance, and to the extent possible, restore the surrounding area to its natural condition at the end of the mine's 20 year useful life. DD estimates this process will cost $1,500,000.
