Origins Most commonly the term is used for the piles of waste earth materials removed during an excavation process. In surface mining (commonly called strip mining) for coal or other underground deposits, earth materials removed to expose the targeted deposit are piled up alongside the excavation site (commonly a strip mining pit) in spoil banks.

8.4.5: Heap Leaching Method Heap leaching was first used to extract very low grades of metal ore from piles of plant tailings or waste rock. In the case of copper, for example, a solution of sulfuric acid was released at the top of the pile and allowed to percolate down through the pile. The effluent was collected and washed over scrap tin. The copper would precipitate out on the tin, …

One major type of solid waste associated with mining is the barren rock that needs to be removed to gain access to any mineral deposit of commercial interest. A second major type of solid waste created by mining is the solids residue that results from the processing of the ore in order to extract the minerals of economic value.
