On August 2, 2019, a catastrophic rockburst disaster occurred in Tangshan mine, causing death of 7 miners. After the investigation, the coal mine is facing reproduction. Taking the 0291 panel as the engineering background, this paper studies the coal seam blasting pressure relief and ground stress monitoring technology in working face retreat. During the roadway development and working face excavation, coal seam blasting was adopted to transfer the high ground stress of coal seam to the deep ground of the coal body. The blasting operation is presented in detail in this paper. In the working face retreat stage, drilling powder method, hydraulic shield resistance monitoring, roof displacement, and vibration monitoring methods are implemented. The results show that the pressure relief range of coal seam is 4–12 m in the coal mass after blasting. The shield working resistance is stable at 20–30 MPa. The range of relative displacement of the roof is about −1.0 to 2.5 mm, and the maximum vertical vibration velocity is in the range of 7–11 cm/s, up to 12 cm/s. The measured parameters are acceptable, so it is concluded that 0291 panel can be safely mined. This study provides a reference for the coal seam blasting design for rockburst coal mine and provides a technical means for the analysis of pressure release effect and dynamic pressure monitoring during working face retreating.

Fracture Development

When stratified mining is adopted in high-gas and extrathick coal seam, a large amount of pressure-relief gas of the lower layer flows into the upper layer goaf along the cracks in the layer, resulting in upper layer working face to frequently exceed the gas limit. And ordinary drilling can no longer meet the requirements of the pressure-relief gas drainage of the lower layer. The 205 working face of Tingnan Coal Mine is taken as the test background in this paper, and based on the “pressure-relief and flow-increase” effect of the lower layer under the action of mining stress during the upper layer mining, the gas drainage of kilometer directional drilling in lower layer is studied. According to the distribution characteristics of support pressure before and after the working face, the pressure-relief principle, fracture development characteristics, and gas migration law of the lower layered coal body are analyzed in the process of advancing the upper layered working face in the extrathick coal seam with high gas. The maximum depth of goaf damage is calculated theoretically, and the Flac3D numerical simulation of the failure deformation of the 205 working face floor is carried out. It is found that the maximum depth of plastic failure of the lower layer is about 13 m. According to the plastic deformation of the lower layer under different vertical depths and the movement of coal and rock mass, it is determined that the reasonable range of kilometer directional drilling in the lower layer is 6–9 m below the floor vertical depth. From 15 m to 45 m in the two parallel grooves, there is no fracture failure with a sharp increase or decrease in the displacement in the local range. Meanwhile, in this part, the roof falling behind is not easy to compaction, and the displacement of the floor is large, which does not cause plastic damage. The degree of pressure relief is more sufficient, and the permeability of the lower layer is good. Therefore, drilling should be arranged as much as possible along the working face in this tendency range. The determination of reasonable arrangement range of kilometer directional drilling in extrathick coal seam provides reference index and theoretical guidance for industrial test of working face and also provides new ideas for gas control of stratified mining face in high-gas and extrathick coal seam.

Through the analysis on the drilling hole gas drainage effect(2225 working face crossing seam drainage, K2air way drilling field layout, crossing seam drainage gas in K3b coal seam),it is found that hole sealing technology directly affects gas drainage. Based on the original hole sealing technology and combining with field conditions, an improved drilling scheme for transportation roadway was proposed, considering the drilling layout, sealing material and depth, grouting time, pre-plunging depth. Test results of the scheme showed that, with a rise in the cost and drilling pressure relief time, the pressuring-relief gas drainage amount was greatly increased, the drilling field pre-pumping concentration was enhanced to 4.4times, the drainage efficiency was improved.

Abstract Gob-side entry retained with roadside filling (GER-RF) plays a key role in achieving coal mining without pillar and improving the coal resource recovery rate. Since there are few reports on the cyclic filling length of GER-RF, a method based on the stress difference method is proposed to determine the cyclic filling length of GER-RF. Firstly, a stability analysis mechanics model of the immediate roof above roadside filling area in GER was established, then the relationship between the roof stress distribution and the unsupported roof length was obtained by the stress difference method. According to the roof stability above roadside filling area based on the relationship between the roof stress and its tensile strength, the maximum unsupported roof length and rational cyclic filling length of GER-RF. Combined with the geological conditions of the 1103 thin coal seam working face of Heilong Coal Mine and the geological conditions of the 1301 thick coal seam working face of Licun Coal Mine, this suggested method was applied to determine that the rational cyclic filling lengths of GER-RF were 2.4 m and 3.2 m, respectively. Field trial tests show that the suggested method can effectively control the surrounding rock deformation along with rational road-in support and roadside support, and improve the filling and construction speed.

In order to solve the serious problem of single serious outburst coal seam gas disaster, based on the gas geological conditions of Jiangxi Fengcheng Qujiang company, theoretical analysis, numerical simulation, field test and other comprehensive research methods were used to analyze the partition fracture law of roadway surrounding rock under different mining depth conditions. The results show that: under the conditions of high ground stress, high temperature and other environmental conditions, the radius of pressure relief loose circle of surrounding rock of roadway is significantly increased, and it is significantly larger than that of shallow part. In the deep area of - 800m elevation, the distance between floor roadway and coal seam is optimized to be 12 ~ 15m. The field test results show that the original permeability coefficient of overlying coal seam of floor roadway increases by 55.74 times, and the pressure relief effect is good.

Aiming at the serious problems caused by coal mine mining activities causing the rock burst accidents, this paper is based on rock mechanics and material mechanics to establish the key layer breaking by the double-key layer beam breaking structural mechanics model of a single working face and double working face under repeated mining. The theoretical calculation formula of the angle was used as the theoretical basis for the elevation angle of the pre-reloading hole of the hard roof. The rationality and reliability of the formula were verified by the physical similarity simulation experiment and the 3 Dimension Distinct Element Code numerical simulation experiment, revealing the rock formation under the influence of repeated mining. The results show that the derived key layer breaking angle formula is suitable for the theoretical calculation of the breaking angle of the key layer of a single coal seam when the repeated disturbance coefficient is λ = 1; when it is λ = 2, it is suitable for the repeated mining of the short-distance double-coal mining. The rationality and reliability of the theoretical formula of the breaking angle of the double key layer of single coal seam and double coal seam were verified by the physical similarity simulation experiment. Through the 3DEC numerical simulation results and theoretical calculation results, the W1123 working face hard top pre-cracking pressure relief drilling elevation angle was 78°. The drilling peeping method was used to verify the results. The results show that the theoretical formula of the critical layer breaking angle is well applied in engineering practice.

A case study based on the 401103 fully mechanized caving face in the Hujiahe Coal Mine was carried out in this research to analyze the rock burst risks in a 54 m-wide coal pillar for roadway protection. Influencing factors of rock burst risks on the working face were analyzed. Stress distribution characteristics on the working face of the wide coal pillar for roadway protection were discussed using FLAC3D numerical simulation software. Spatial distribution characteristics of historical impact events on the working face were also investigated using the microseismic monitoring method. Results show that mining depth, geological structure, outburst proneness of coal strata, roof strata structure, adjacent mining area, and mining influence of the current working face are the main influencing factors of rock burst on the working face. Owing to the collaborative effects of front abutment pressure of the working face and lateral abutment pressure in the goaf, the coal pillar is in the ultimate equilibrium state and microseismic events mainly concentrate in places surrounding the coal pillars. Hence, wide coal pillars become the regions with rock burst risks on the working face. The working face adopts some local prevention technologies, such as pressure relief through presplitting blasting in roof, pressure relief through large-diameter pores in coal seam, coal seam water injection, pressure relief through large-diameter pores at bottom corners, and pressure relief through blasting at bottom corners. Moreover, some regional prevention technologies were proposed for narrow coal pillar for roadway protection, including gob-side entry, layer mining, and fully mechanized top-coal caving face with premining top layer.

Rock burst is a typical dynamic disaster in deep underground coal mining. Based on the support problems of the deep roadways in fully mechanized caving face 401111 of Hujiahe Coal Mine suffering from rock burst in Shaanxi Province of China, the failure law and influencing factors of the surrounding rock of the roadway are analyzed. The results show that the deformation of surrounding rock in the roadway shows the characteristics of elastic, plastic transformation, rheology, and expansion. At the same time, it has the typical characteristics of deep roadway, such as the fast deformation speed, long duration, asymmetric deformation, and large loose broken area of surrounding rock. Based on the principle of “strengthening support in shallow zones” and “deep pressure relief in deep zones” in the surrounding rock, the control scheme of surrounding rock in the return roadway of fully mechanized caving working face 401111 is proposed by taking the large diameter pressure relief and deep hole blasting as the main means of pressure relief. The practice shows that the surrounding rock of the return roadway is relatively stable after the implementation of the new scheme, which shows that the design of the new support scheme is reasonable and reliable. It is of great significance for the stability control of surrounding rock of the mining roadway suffering from rock burst.

The condition of the coal pillars remained in the room-and-pillar gobs is complicated. The stresses loaded on the pillar floor may be transmitted and overlapped. It changes the stress environment of the lower coal seam roof, leading abnormal periodic weighting. In the procedure of coal seam 3−1 mining in the Huoluowan Coal Mine, the ground stress is high while the working face passing through the room pillars of overlying coal seam 2−2, leading to hydraulic shield being broken. In this paper, theoretical analysis, numerical calculation, and similar material simulation were used to analyse the stress environment of lower seam and the effect of coal pillars remained in close-distanced upper seam. The stress transfer model was established for the room pillars of coal seam 2−2, and the stress distribution of underlying strata was obtained based on theoretical analysis. The joint action of dynamic pressure of high stress-coal pillar with movement of overlying rock strata in the working face 3−1 under the coal pillar was revealed. The results showed that the horizontal stress and vertical stress under the large coal pillar of the room gob in coal seam 2−2 were high, being from 9.7 to 15.3 MPa. The influencing depth of vertical stress ranged from 42 m to 58 m. The influencing depth of horizontal stress ranged from 10 to 23 m. The influencing range of the shear stress was from 25 to 50 m. When the working face 3−1 was mined below the coal pillar of 20 m or 50 m, abutment pressure was relatively high. The stress concentration coefficient reached 4.44–5.00. The dynamic pressure of the working face was induced by the stress overlying of the upper and lower coal seams, instability of the inverted trapezoid rock pillar above the coal pillar, and collapsing movement of the roof. The studying results were beneficial for guiding the safety mining of the coal seam 3−1 in the Huoluowan Coal Mine.

Gob-side entry retaining technology with roof cutting (GERRC) has been widely used in flat and near-flat coal seam conditions, but its application under inclined coal seam is still very deficient. In order to further improve the application system of GERRC and overcome the application difficulties under special geological conditions, this paper takes the 43073 working face of Yixin coal mine as an example to research the GERRC with upper roadway under gently inclined thick coal seam. Firstly, the difficulties in the upper entry retaining with inclined coal seam are analyzed and the corresponding key technologies and system designs are put forward. Subsequently, the roof cutting and upper entry retaining are designed in detail according to geological conditions of test working face, and the roof cutting and pressure releasing effect is analyzed by numerical simulation to expound the stress distribution and pressure releasing mechanism of surrounding rock. Finally, the upper entry retaining field test is carried out to verify the feasibility and applicability of the technology and related designs. Through field monitoring, it is found that the weighting step increases significantly, the weighting strength decreases effectively on the roof cutting side, and the pressure relief effect is obvious. Meanwhile, the maximum roof to floor convergence is 361 mm and the maximum shrinkage of both sides is 280 mm, so the retained entry can meet the reuse requirement of adjacent working face.
