2. Mining Open-Pit Mining: Most iron ore is extracted through open-pit mining, which involves removing surface layers of soil and rock (overburden) to reach the ore deposits below. Underground Mining: In some cases, iron ore is mined using underground methods when the deposits are deep.
Iron ore mining methods vary by the type of ore being mined. Currently, there are four main types of iron ore deposits, depending on the mineralogy and geology of the ore deposits.
