Which category includes symbols such as Quarry, Gravel pit, Mine shaft, and Mill tailings?

Marine Shorelines Symbols.

Mines and Caves symbols.

Mapping symbols are grouped by the type of feature they represent. Quarry and gravel pit are open-pit mining sites, while a mine shaft is an access point to an underground mine, and mill tailings are waste products from processing ore. All of these are associated with mining operations, so they belong in the Mines and Caves symbols category.

The other options describe different kinds of features: marine shoreline symbols cover coastlines and coastal features, vegetation mapping symbols depict plant life, and topographic contour symbols show elevation and terrain shape. None of those categories specifically target mining-related features, so they don’t fit as well as the Mines and Caves category.

Vegetation Mapping Symbols.

Topographic Contour Symbols.
