    Determining The Impacts From Mining On Surface And Ground Water

    By J. P. Nairn, C. M. McCulloch

    More and more underground mining is being conducted using the long wall method. Likewise, many new surface mines use area or mountaintop removal methods. These methods can have a significant impact on
