Abstract

A highwall mining system for mining aggregate material from a seam (8) extending from a highwall (6) is disclosed. The system comprises a mining means (9) for cutting coal from the seam (8) to form a drive (10) in the seam (8) and a conveying means (11) formed from a plurality of conveyor units (13) releasably coupled together for conveying coal from the drive (10). The system further comprises a driving means for driving the mining means (9) and the conveying means (13) into the seam (8) to form the drive (10).
