Retreat mining is the removal of pillars in the underground mining technique known as room and pillar mining. In the first phase of room and pillar mining, tunnels are advanced into the coal or ore body in a rectangular pattern resembling city streets. Pillars are left between tunnels to support the weight of the overburden.

Also called stope and pillar mining, room and pillar mining involves mining stopes to gain access to mining the ore. Loaders and haulers transport loose rock out of the mine. Stopes are cut into the ore body, leaving pillars in place to support the roof of the mine. In most instances, a roof bolter will also be used to help support the roof.

Room and pillar mining leaves at the rear approximately 57% of the mine's coal for hold up. This presents a sturdy financial inducement for retreat mining as a way to recoup more amount of material and expand profits. Retreat mining is an unsafe process, nevertheless, guided by severe safety regulations.
