characteristic of its own, which comes close to quarry. However
furthermore I would prefer to have it the other way round, quarry being a
special case of surface_mining:<br>

landuse=surface_mining<br>
resource=limestone, marble, sand (or whatever)<br>

think that at this point it is still possible to avoid problem of
