n the process of China’s development, various resources need to be used effectively. Among them, coal resources are one of the important basic guarantees in people’s life and production. The continuous use of coal resources in development has made mining more and more difficult, and put forward higher challenges to the mining process and the geological survey process. During the construction of coal mining projects, it is necessary to carry out effective measurement data, accurately improve the underground construction situation of the entire coal mine, make detailed data sorting of underground mines, and make correct judgments. Based on the actual situation, the thesis improves the accuracy in the process of coal mine geological survey, analyzes the related reasons, and adopts scientific measures to improve the maximization of coal mining.

Queensland is richly endowed with coal resources that have long supported the state’s thriving coal export industry. The more recent development and growth of the CSG industry, which shares an interest in coal resources, has brought into focus the need to find mechanisms that provide for co-existence between mining and gas proponents. The present legislative framework in Queensland provides an overlapping tenure between coal mining and CSG proponents. This overlap is extensive, and presents concerns about the certainty of access to resources and security of tenure, which are keys to providing investment confidence. The drainage of gas from coal seams for reasons of mine safety is long established, and when considered with incentives provided by measures to tax carbon emissions and the opportunity to use the energy value of CSG, there are clearly good reasons to find mutually beneficial ways to extract both coal and gas. It is submitted that the key co-existence mechanism to allow for the optimal use of coal and CSG is linked to the nature of the resources themselves. That is, the very broad geographic footprint of CSG provides geographic and temporal flexibility to work in and around coal-mining projects. These arrangements are facilitated by use of commercially based co-development agreements that consider co-ordinated production of both resources within a co-operative framework that provides for safety, communication, planning and, above all, certainty of process and access to resources. These agreements provide mutually beneficial, win-win outcomes and work towards ensuring best use of the state’s coal and gas resources.

The following article analyzes the effectiveness of directional hydraulic fracturing (DHF) as a method of rock burst prevention, used in black coal mining with a longwall system. In order to define changes in seismic activity due to DHF at the “Rydułtowy” Black Coal Mine (Upper Silesia, Poland), observations were made regarding the seismic activity of the rock mass during coal mining with a longwall system using roof layers collapse. The seismic activity was recorded in the area of the longwall itself, where, on a part of the runway, the rock mass was expanded before the face of the wall by interrupting the continuity of the rock layers using DHF. The following article presents measurements in the form of the number and the shock energy in the area of the observed longwall, which took place before and after the use of DHF. The second part of the article unveils the results of numerical modeling using the discrete element method, allowing to track the formation of goafs for the variant that does not take DHF into consideration, as well as with modeled fractures tracing DHF carried out in accordance with the technology used at “Rydułtowy” coal mine.

The goal of this paper is to analyze the phenomenon of gas emission during a methane and coal outburst based on the unipore Crank diffusion model for spherical grains and plane sheets. Two occurrences in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin were analyzed: an outburst in a Zofiówka coal mine in 2005 and an outburst in a Budryk coal mine in 2012. Those two outbursts differed considerably. The first one was connected with an unidentified tectonic disturbance in the form of a triple, interlocking fault, and the other one is an example of an outburst in an area free from tectonic disturbances. The model analysis required laboratory tests in order to determine the sorption properties of coals from post-outburst masses. Sorption isotherms and the values of the effective diffusion coefficient were specified. The post-outburst masses were subjected to sieve analysis and the grain composition curves were plotted. The researchers also used the measurement data provided by proper mine services, such as the methane content, the volume of post-outburst masses, and the time courses of CH4 concentration changes in excavations. They were recorded by methane measurement systems in the mines.

In view of the shortcoming such as wiring difficulties, poor scalability, and big cable usage in present mine security monitoring system, this paper puts forward a kind of substation monitoring and control system based on ZIGBEE and CAN. With the core of core, The system collects various measurement data of sensors through the ZIGBEE wireless network, realizes the to collect, and then through the CAN bus to realize the transmission of control commands and data of the up and down machine, and monitor the production parameters and environmental parameters in the coal mine. Experiments show that the monitoring substation is of high real-time performance, good stability, strong expansibility, etc., and can meet the requirements of the coal mine development and mining.

There are abundant CBM (Coalbed Methane) in China. These CBM has caused a remarkable problem to the coal-mining in China. In order to improve the structure of Chinese energy and eliminate the risk of coal mine gas, the relevant industries and sections have implemented many explorations in CBM enriched areas. With great achievements, there are many important problems in the actions of CBM exploitation. The disadvantageous interaction of the surface CBM well and the later coal mining has been ignored at all. There are many disadvantages and defects. To solve these problems and eliminate or weaken the disadvantageous, the scientific and reasonable design of surface CBM well location is an important step. With the thinking of surface condition, coal mining plan, the arrangement of coal mine laneway, the direction and scale of the in-situ stress, and thinking more about the negative influence to and of surface CBM well, according to the theories of mining dynamics, mining engineering, mining geomechanics, and the CBM engineering, the design theory of the surface CBM well net can be studied. Finally, the arrangement principle of CBM product well in coal field is presented. The existing or future coal pillar will be a critical location for the surface CBM well location.

With the 1970 passage of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), federal regulation reached the American workplace. Given the newness of the legislation, any firm conclusion on its effectiveness seems premature. However, there is ample evidence on federal safety regulation of a specific workplace: the coal mine. The federal government has been directly involved in coal mining safety for over 35 years, operating under three major pieces of legislation, enacted in 1941, 1952, and 1969. Opposing opinions regarding the effect of this legislation can be grouped into three categories: radical, reactionary, and reformer. A multiple interrupted time-series analysis indicates that, in fact, the 1941 and 1969 regulations significantly reduced the fatality rate in coal mining. Certain conditions seem related to the effectiveness of this safety legislation: birth order, provisions, enforcement, target population, and goals. The first two conditions would appear to work for the success of the OSHA, the latter three conditions to work against it.

By conducting field investigation and tests, such as groundwater pumping test and rock mechanics test, and building numerical models to simulate damage of coal mining to aquifers, it was proved that coal mining in some coal mine area caused impacts to groundwater environment, including impact on water cycle, the structure of aquifers, and groundwater flow field, as a result of which some water supply sources in coal mine area become unavailable. In addition, a couple of solutions are presented to mitigate the impacts.
