The Built World: How Humans Engineer Environments
HOMEWORK
Part 1: Watch the three below videos on Youtube. In a 1-to-1½ page write-up, identify and summarize the key points you learned from the above three videos about open-pit mining and underground coal mining. Be sure to indicate what these techniques are, some of the machinery required to extract materials, and any other features you think are important to understanding these two techniques.
a. Bingham Canyon (Kennecott) Copper Mine – This open pit mine is the largest man-made excavation in the world!
