         In addition to these various types of deep mining,several types of surface mining may be used when minerals lie relatively close to the surface of the Earth.One type is open pit mining.The first step is to remove the overburden,thethe layers of rock and earth lying above the ore,with giant acrapers.The ore is broken up in a series of blasting operations.Power shovels pick up the pieces and load them into trucks or,in some cases,ore trains.These carry it up ramps to ground level.Soft ores are removed by drilling screws,called augers.

        Another type is called"placer" ining,sometimes heavy metals,such as gold,are found in soil deposited by screams and rivers.The soil is picked up by a power shovel and transferred to a long trough.Water is run through the soil in the trough.This carries soil particles away with with it.The metal particles are heavier than the soil and sink to the bottom where they can be recovered.

        The finishing off process of mining is called mineral concentration.In this process,the desired substances are removed from the waste in various ways.One technique is to bubble air through a liquid in which ore particles are suspended.Chemicals are added that make the minerals cling to the air bubbles.The bubbles rise to the surface with the mineral particles attached,and they can be skimmed off and saved.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon:basalt and breccia.Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the E

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for existing train stations and bridges.In 1863,after spending time working as

         Today ,the most universally known style of both men and women is jeans;these trousers are worn throuhout the world on a variety of occasions and in diverse situations.Also called levis or denims,jeans have an interesting history,one that is intermixed with the derivation of the words jeans,denims,and levis.               The word jeans is derived from the name of the place where a similar style of plants developed.In the sixteenth century,sailors from Genoa,Italy,wore a rather unique type of cotton trousers.In the French language,the word for the city of Genoa and for the people from that city is Genes;this name became attached to the specific style of pants worn by the sailors from this city and developed into the word jeans that today describes the descendents of the Genovese sailors' cotton pants.               Similar to the word jeans,the word denim is also derived from a place name.In the seventeenth century,French tailors began making trousers out of a specialized t
