The invention of hydraulic mining allow for larger mining operations because water released at high pressure could move large rocks out of the way.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hydraulic mining is the process of using high pressure water jets at rocks to move them, break them and eventually remove them. Water is one among the most important components in this mining process.

This was mainly used so that miners can go deeper when they are mining and can eventually take on more deeper mining missions, especially due to the water which is released at high speed and pressure could move large rocks out of the way.

KatRina [158]

This is a personal question, which means that only you can answer it. However, I can give some examples that might help guide your work.

An example of a primary source that you might encounter in your own life is that of a news article. As this article is likely to be written by a reporter witnessing the events, it can be considered a primary source. On the other hand, an example of a secondary source would be a non-fiction book that talks about a historical event. This is because such a book would give a second-hand account of an event based on historical information.
