Delete: Essay, written like it should be in a thesis paper or peer-reviewed journal. Not sure why it zones in on coal mining; it appears to be too specific for an article here. Oaktree b (talk) 15:53, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - useful material for another venue -- it's not suited for Wikipedia. बिनोद थारू, this is so specific and technical there's nothing to merge to a general topic article such as Coal mining.
Oaktree b (pedantry alert): to answer your question, coal is "softer" than most other materials mined under ground such as iron or diamonds so equipment such as continuous miners, roof bolters and longwall equipment are specific to underground coal mining (there are a few minor exceptions such as salt and potash). Mining methods for hard rock mining of materials such as ores are totally different.
