Here is a book that actually fills the gap between theory and application. Mining engineering students studying mine design and needing guidance in assembling a mine-design project will refer to this book over and over again. It is useful for industry professionals who require a mine-design reference book for daily use or, who wish to prepare for the professional engineers' examination. 
Chapters include: Introduction, Mine Preplanning, Ventilation, Strata Control, Pumping and Drainage, Power Systems, Hoisting Systems, Rail and Belt Haulage Systems, Rubber-Tired Haulage Systems, and Surface Extraction. 
It is fully indexed.

Modern American Coal Mining: Methods and Applications covers a full range of coal mining and coal industry topics, with chapters written by leading coal mining industry professionals and academicians. Highlights from the book include coal resources and distribution, mine design, advances in strata control and power systems, improvements in surface mining, ventilation to reduce fires and explosions, drilling and blasting, staffing requirement ratios, management and preplanning, and coal preparation and reclamation.
The text is enhanced with 11 case studies that are representative of underground and surface mines in the United States. Narrative descriptions and appropriate mine plans are presented, with attention given to unique features and situations that are addressed through mine design and construction. A useful glossary is included, as are many examples, figures, equations and tables, to make the text even more useful.
