Summary
Proposal for the new tag landuse=surface_mining for an area 
of land used for surface mining (i.e., lignite/uranium/bauxite/peat/gravel/sand/limestone/peat/...)
This proposal also depreciates landuse=quarry, as it would be replaced and more precisely described by landuse=surface_mining + mining_resource=limestone/granite/... .
Currently being used with:
