<onlyinclude>The '''raisebore mining method''' is an underground mining method to obtain [[ore]], in which a horizontal underground shaft is built below the deposit.</onlyinclude><ref name = ref1/> A revolving drill called a "reaming head" is input vertically into the deposit which knocks the ore loose and allows it to fall into the collecting [[vehicle]] below.<ref name = ref1>M. Hudyma and Y. Potvin, Underground mining technology 2017.</ref> The [[uranium]] is then processed into a [[liquid]] slurry in order to pump it up to the surface.
