The surveyor will model existing grade before mining begins. Then the surveyor will model the site after the material has been taken. The difference is the volume mined.
 
@IRstuff, it is not for a school. Sort of a mini business proposal. I am trying to help a friend out.

Weblink are welcom & all other reference matterials. Moreso, all other fellow surveyors & civil engineers that has worked in this capacity can also contribute their quota.
Thanks inanticipation
 
They also provide UTM coordinates for mining proper as well as for buildings associated with mines, roads, etc.
