lower risk of hearing loss in surface mining

Compared to underground mining, surface mining typically has a higher risk of lung disease due to exposure to dust and particulate matter. Additionally, there is a higher risk of mine collapse in surface mining as the land is excavated and reshaped. However, there is a lower risk of miner injuries in surface mining compared to underground mining, as well as a lower risk of hearing loss due to less exposure to loud machinery underground.
