Mark Robertson (asker) Jun 30, 2019:
Afinal a resposta certa aqui é benches:

Bench mining is an underground mining technique typically applied to room-and-pillar mines where full seam extraction on development presents an unacceptably high risk of injury from high pillar ribs or where the mining equipment is not designed to extract the full seam thickness.

open pits

Based on this passage:

"Os principais métodos de lavra a céu aberto (com as correspondentes denominações em língua inglesa, internacionalmente consagradas) são aqueles de explotação a seco, ou seja:

- a lavra por bancadas (open pit mining)
- a lavra em tiras ou fatias (strip mining ou open cast mining)
- a lavra de pedreiras (quarry mining ou dimensioned stones mining)."

Mark, I now searched "undergound terraces". Maybe you can decide after seeing if any of these examples is relevant:

OK. Então se é subterrânea você escolhe "open pit", a céu aberto?

Nestes casos, o melhor é fechar a pergunta e dizer "Answer found elsewhere."Para o glossário não ficar com um termo erróneo.
Note from asker:
A mina é 100% subterránea. Acha que dá na mesma?
Obrigado Ana. Assim está resolvido. Perguntei ao cliente e a resposta que me deram foi "bench" :()!
Vou seguir o seu conselho. Terraces.
