A largescale mining of coal requires the use of draglines, trucks, conveyors, hydraulic jacks and shearers. Depending on their properties, coal is mainly divided into four types such as peat, lignite, bituminous and anthracite. The age and depth at which they are buried under the ground define the properties of a particular type of coal.
