Answer: The correct answer for the blank is -

strip mining.

Strip mining can be described as a process of mining in which overlying vegetation (such as bushes and trees) is first removed, which is followed by stripping/removal of soil and underground layers of rocks (using scrapers/buldozers and loaders) so as to expose and then extract the coal from the underground deposits of coal.

Thus, strip mining is the right answer for the blank.

Similarly, not all viruses are bad—we now know there are also beneficial viruses present in our gut, skin and blood that can kill undesirable bacteria and more dangerous viruses.
