mine de houille souterraine/sous-marine

Suggestion
Par opposition à une mine à ciel ouvert, Decazeville en Aveyron, par exemple.
Souterraine ou sous-marine selon le contexte

disagree  Daryo: Just because the first ghit for "deep coal mining" happens to be a mine under the sea bed doesn't make it a defining characteristic of a "deep mine" + not all underground mines are "deep"
