Cut And Fill

For mining using the caving and filling methods in metal mines, determining a suitable size for the isolated pillars—the connecting part of the extension from shallow to deep—is crucial for ensuring safety and efficiency. Considering actual cases involving deep caving and cut-and-fill mining in the Chifeng Hongling lead-zinc mine in Inner Mongolia, China, the reserved thickness range of the horizontal isolation layer is obtained via theoretical analysis. On this basis, the pre-processing software HyperMesh is used to build a high-precision hexahedral grid model of the mining area, and the three-dimensional geological model of the mining area is imported into the finite-difference software FLAC3D. The stress field, displacement field, and plastic area evolution law of pillars (horizontally isolated pillars and adjacent rib pillars) in the stope of the ninth middle section after excavation are analyzed via numerical simulation inversion of the selected scheme of horizontal isolated pillars. The numerical simulation results show that the scheme employed to retain the upper horizontal isolated pillars in the ninth middle section involves reserving thicknesses of 8 m and 32 m at average ore body thicknesses of 15 m and 35 m, respectively. These results can provide theoretical guidance and a basis for safe and efficient mining of deep metal mines.

The water inrush of a working face is the main hidden danger to the safe mining of underwater coal seams. It is known that the development of water-flowing fractured zones in overlying strata is the basic path which causes water inrushes in working faces. In the engineering background of the underwater mining in the Longkou Mining Area, the analysis model and judgment method of crack propagation were created on the basis of the Mohr–Coulomb criterion. Fish language was used to couple the extension model into the FLAC3d software, in order to simulate the mining process of the underwater coal seam, as well as to analyze the initiation evolutionary characteristics and seepage laws of the fractured zones in the overlying strata during the advancing processes of the working face. The results showed that, during the coal seam mining process, the mining fractured zones which had been caused by the compression-shear and tension-shear were mainly concentrated in the overlying strata of the working face. Also, the open-off cut and mining working face were the key sections of the water inrush in the rock mass. The condition of the water disaster was the formation of a water inrush channel. The possible water inrush channels in underwater coal mining are mainly composed of water-flowing fractured zones which are formed during the excavation processes. The numerical simulation results were validated through the practical engineering of field observations on the height of water-flowing fractured zone, which displayed a favorable adaptability.

Aiming at the generation of blasting fume in underground blind roadway, numerical simulation method was taken to obtain the diffusion law of the blasting fume. In accordance with the actual situation in Shachang mining area of Shouyun iron mine, the physical model and mathematical model were set up, computational grids were divided, and the boundary condition was established. The diffusion law of blasting fume and the completion time under different explosives dosage were simulated by Fluent. The laws of blasting fume diffusion and diffusion time changing with the amount of explosive in local fan forced ventilation were obtained. The results can provide a theoretical basis for the research of a reasonable and effective ventilation manner of blind roadway.

To study the influence of blasting vibration on the broken rock zone around a seepage roadway and provide guidance for design of the roadway support, the broken rock zones around rock of seepage roadways under production blasting vibration are determined by onsite tests in a mining area, Daye iron mine. During the testing process, it is found that blasting vibration causes internal cracks of surrounding rocks to initiate and develop, the fracture density increases, the acoustic wave velocity of rock mass decreases, and the broken rock zones expand. At the same time, through onsite observation, it is found that blasting vibration results in crack development and formation of a water pathway to lead to surface water into the ground. The mechanical response around rock of the seepage roadway under blasting vibration is simulated by the two-dimensional realistic fracture progress analysis calculation software (RFPA2D). It is found that internal cracks of roadway surrounding rock initiate, propagate, and join up gradually, and the fracture range is expanding under the seepage water pressure, ground stress, and cyclic loads, and the broken rock zones also expand. The results from numerical simulation are consistent with the results of onsite tests. It is also found that the tensile stress appears around some cracks, leading to part of the cracks more likely to generate shear failure under the seepage water pressure during simulation.

Mining Depth

Continuous mining of metal deposits leads the overlying strata to move, deform, and collapse, which is particularly obvious when open-pit mining and underground mining are adjacent. Once the mining depth of the adjacent open-pit lags severely behind the underground, the ultimate underground mining depth needs to be studied before the surface deformation extends to the open-pit mining area. The numerical simulation and the mechanical model are applied to research the ultimate underground mining depth of the southeast mining area in the Gongchangling Iron mine. In the numerical simulation, the effect of granular rock is considered and the granular rock in the collapse pit is simplified as the degraded rock mass. The ultimate underground mining depth can be obtained by the values of the indicators of surface movement and deformation. In the mechanical model, the modified mechanical model for the progressive hanging wall caving is established based on Hoke’s conclusion, which considers the lateral pressure of the granular rock. Using the limiting equilibrium analysis, the relationship of the ultimate underground mining depth and the range of surface caving can be derived. The results show that the ultimate underground mining depth obtained by the numerical simulation is greater than the theoretical calculation of the modified mechanical model. The reason for this difference may be related to the assumption of the granular rock in the numerical simulation, which increases the resistance of granular rock to the deformation of rock mass. Therefore, the ultimate underground mining depth obtained by the theoretical calculation is suggested. Meanwhile, the surface displacement monitoring is implemented to verify the reasonability of the ultimate underground mining depth. Monitoring results show that the indicators of surface deformation are below the critical value of dangerous movement when the underground is mined to the ultimate mining depth. The practice proves that the determination of the ultimate underground mining depth in this work can ensure the safety of the open-pit and underground synergetic mining.
