Hi Sonali and Blake,some other features for mines (what I've found I tagged as 
landuse=quarry, eventually with it's industrial area if can be seen the 
processing area or buildings):-mounts of soil, gravel, etc.;-step-like 
terraces;-the characteristic big machinery exposed: Rail-Veyor (industrial 
light-rails, some in spider-like shapes);-other: Bucket-wheel excavators; 
crushers.
