The term quarry has traditionally been used to mine stones.

The majority of open pit mining machine in Australia currently operate using discontinuous shovel/truck systems. These systems are favoured as they enable; (i) mining capacity to be progressively scaled up over the life of a mine; (ii) the use of narrow benches that defer the high costs of stripping, and (iii) flexibility to rapidly adapt mine plans in the face of uncertainties caused by changing commodity prices or unexpected variability in ore grades.
