Abstract Under a background of coordinated open-pit and underground mining engineering practice in the Pingshuo mining area, a combination of numerical simulations and similar-model experiments was used to study the influence of the underground mining direction on slope deformation in two dimensions. The results show that the disturbance caused by inverse-slope mining is more obvious than that caused by along-slope mining. Underground mining presents an asymmetric influence on the open-pit slope; the slope rock mass on the open-off cut side is disturbed more than that on the coal-wall side. Compared with the slope in front of the advancing direction of the underground mining face, the degree of rock-mass damage and stress concentration of the slope of the open-off cut side are more serious. As such, in coordinated open-pit and underground mining practice, an along-slope mining direction is recommended to reduce adverse effects on slope stability and improve the recovery rate of coal resources.

The Stability

The stability state of slope rock mass is relating to each other’s relative location during the transformation from open-pit to underground mining, it’s the most disadvantageous influence on the slope stability when the underground mining area is located in the toe of slope, and it’s the best influence as in the slope extracellular region. Slope stability factor changes with the geometric dimensions of underground mining increased, but not in direct proportion. Under the condition of constant geometric dimensions of mining area, the influence on slope stability is changing with the mining depth increased. Thus indicating that the influence on slope stability by underground mining has its spatial property, and to determine the specific influence value requires a combination of many factors, such as the relationship of relative spatial position, the geometric dimensions of mining area, engineering geological conditions and so on.

As this mining area has a shallow coal seam and a dump, therefore, the mining for the deep resources uses the method of transition from open-pit to underground without protective coal column. In this paper, the numerical simulation method is used to analysis the surface subsidence and slope stability from the two different mining schemes which are from inside to outside, and from outside to inside, in order to obtain the optimization of mining scheme. And settlement and slope stability of rock body are further analyzed from two aspects of fully exploit from the tendency and from toward, the result of an overall slip slope failure caused by underground mining is found. So that in the process of exploitation, corresponding prevention and control measures to the slope safety has been put forward, ensuring smooth production.

Driven by the world’s thirst for energy, the demand for uranium is rapidly increasing. Hence, producers of uranium are struggling to keep up with demands and are exploring more cost-effective methods of extraction. Uranium is currently mined via open pit and underground mining as well as with in situ leaching methods, with in situ leaching currently accounting for approximately 45 % of total uranium production. Studies have shown that the presence of uranium in soils strongly affects the composition and function of resident microbial communities. In view of the close association of biological processes and uranium geochemistry, it is surprising how little information is available on the effect of microbial communities on in situ leaching. Hence, this review focuses on the possibility to exploit the properties of such microorganisms and identify opportunities to use natural microbial processes to improve uranium recovery and mine site rehabilitation.

To mines turning from open pit to underground mining with caving method as transition, air leakage of overburden layer in winter can lead to lower pit temperature, affecting their regular production. The paper is based on the theory of fluid flow in porous media, simulating wind velocity of overburden layer air leakage with FLUENT software and calculating influence of air leakage of the overburden layer on pit temperature under the condition of various porosities and thickness. The conclusion is drawn that overburden layer thickness is above 40m,air leakage influence on pit temperature is relatively little, thus offering scientific basis for rational overburden layer thickness and structure of open pit into underground mining.

Geohazards in mining areas are mainly ground subsidence, slope landslides and ground cracks, surface cover degradation and environmental ecological pattern destruction. The classification and rank of terrain slope and the feature area extraction of the slope are the important content for the correlation analysis with the geohazards. The slope classification and rank index system for soil and water conservation, land use and man-made ground disasters was analyzed. According to the characteristics of open pit and underground associated mining area, we comprehensively analyzed the spatial correlation between different ground disaster and terrain features and landform types, and propose a new slope ranking index, dividing slope zones and forming slope classification map. Especially slope area of 35-45 degrees and more than 45 degrees was extracted, and the relationship between regional geohazards and slope zone was analyzed. The application of terrestrial laser scanning technology to establish open-pit high precision digital elevation model, extraction of slope, slope type, gully density characteristic factor, topography factor data sets are established, and correlation analysis, to enhance disaster information content.

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.
