Mechanism of Rock Bursts Induced by the Synthetic Action of “Roof Bending and Rock Pillar Prying” in Subvertical Extra-Thick Coal Seams

When studying the rock burst mechanism in subvertical extra-thick coal seams in the Wudong coal mine in Xinjiang, China, most studies focus on rock pillars, while the effect of the roof on rock bursts is usually ignored. In this paper, a rock burst mechanism in subvertical extra-thick coal seams under the control of a “roof-rock pillar” is proposed. A theoretical analysis is first performed to explain the effect of roof-rock pillar combinations on rock bursts in coal seams. Numerical modeling and microseismic analysis are implemented to further study the mechanism of rock burst. The main conclusions are as follows: 1) During the mining of the B3+6 coal seam, an obvious microseismic concentration phenomenon is found in both the roof and rock pillar of B3+6. The rock bursts exhibited obvious directionality, and its main failure characteristics are floor heave and sidewall heave, but there will also be some failures such as shoulder socket subsidence in some parts. 2) The stress transfer caused by rock pillar prying is the main reason for the large difference in rock burst occurrence near the vertical and extra thick adjacent coal seams under the same mining depth. 3) Under the same cantilever length, the elastic deformation energy of the roof is much greater than that of the rock pillar, which makes it easier to produce high-energy microseismic events. With an increasing mining depth, the roof will become the dominant factor controlling the occurrence of rock bursts. 4) The high-energy event produced by the rock mass fracture near the coal rock interface easily induces rock bursts, while the high-energy event produced by the fracture at the far end of the rock mass is less likely to induce rock burst. 5) Roof deformation extrusion and rock pillar prying provide high static stress conditions for the occurrence of rock bursts in the B3+6 coal seam. The superposition of the dynamic disturbance caused by roof and rock pillar failure and the high static stress of the coal seam is the main cause of rock burst in the B3+6 coal seam.

Substantiation of resource-saving technology when mining the deposits for the production of crushed-stone products

Purpose. Scientific substantiation of the expedient depth of mining the non-metallic deposits of rocky minerals on the basis of mathematical and statistical methods, which will ensure resource-saving and rational use of natural resources. Methods. To solve the purpose set, the following methods are used: graphical-analytical – when optimizing the maximum depth of mining the deposits of building materials, and the method of mathematical modeling – for determining the maximum depth of mining the non-metallic deposits with internal dumping. By means of statistical processing according to systematized types of deposits, the patterns of a change in the maximum depth of mining the basic deposits, depending on the main parameters of the quarry field, have been studied. Findings. A new methodology, which is distinguished by taking into account in-pit dumping, has been developed for calculating the maximum depth of granite quarries, which most of all influences the efficiency of mining operations and the value of economic indicators while ensuring the maximum economic effect with the achievement of a rational maximum depth of mining the deposit. A new, theoretically substantiated methodology has been created for determining the maximum depth of mining the mineral deposits for the production of crushed-stone products while providing the resource- and land-saving during the quarry operation. Originality. For the first time for these deposits, the dependence of their maximum mining depth on the main parameters of the quarry field and the place of internal dumping of overburden rocks has been determined. This has become a determining factor in the appropriate mining of deep non-metallic deposits of building materials with internal dumping, which provides a minimal land disturbance. Practical implications. The research results have been tested and implemented in working projects for mining the Liubymivske, Chaplynske, Pervomaiske, Mykytivske, Trykratske and Novoukrainske granite deposits; as a result of additional mining of mineral reserves, their additional increment in the volume from 1 to 48 million m3 is possible, which will ensure 5-40 years of sustainable operation of the mining enterprise.

Application of the Ultimate Hanging Arch Length of the Layered Roof with Anchors and the Gob-Side Entry Retaining

The gob-side entry retaining plays an important role in improving working face ventilation, alleviating working face connection, and increasing mining revenue. According to the characteristics of the crossheading roof at the 2103 working face of a mine in Shanxi, a structural mechanics model of the roof was established to derive the theoretical formulae for the ultimate hanging arch length of the layered roof with anchors and the initial support resistance of the entry-side support. The influence factors of the ultimate hanging arch length were evaluated using local sensitivity analysis. Based on the theoretical study, the work proposed the collaborative support technology of the crossheading, collaborative support at the 2103 working face. The results showed that the ultimate hanging arch length was most influenced by the width of the plastic zone, followed by the width of the roadway, supporting strength, anchoring strength, layered thickness, and mining depth, while the ultimate tensile strength had little influence. The initial support resistance of the entry-side supports was closely related to the ultimate hanging arch length and the process of gob-side entry retaining. The improved entry-retaining supporting process could control the sharp surface convergence of the surrounding rocks of the entry retaining, the sinkage of the roof of the entry-retaining section was controlled below 100 mm, and that of the advanced section was controlled below 50 mm. The stability of the supports next to the entry is improved, and the needs of the site project are met.

Research on determining the safe mining depth in special geological conditions of Mong Duong coal mine

The displacement and deformation of strata due to underground mining is one of the factors that negatively affect the safety of production activities. The strata displacement and deformation depend on many factors such as mining geological conditions, safe mining depths, and mining technologies. The determination of the safe depths is important for calculating the size of safety pillars to minimize mineral loss. To date, there have been many studies to determine safe mining depths under normal geological conditions. However, not much research has been conducted to determine safe mining depths with special geological conditions such as many folds, breaks, faults, and under water-bearing objects. This research introduces a method to determine the safe mining depths for the reservoir set in special geological conditions with folds and excavating several seams under water bodies. The proposed method employs the principle of the similar geological zone theory to calculate the safe mining depths. The method is applied to the Mong Duong coal mine, with three coal seams numbered 5, 6, and 7 with the depth of 210, 180, and 136 m, respectively. The results of mining depths safe obtained H5= 240m, H6 =192m, H7= 136m, respectively.

Damages of Underground Facilities in Coal Mines due to Gas Explosion Shock Waves: An Overview

With coal mining depth increase, gas explosion accidents due to the high gas emission rates often occur which cause significant casualties and property damages. Among them, gas explosion shock waves not only can destroy the machines and equipment in mine roadways but also cause the failure of mine ventilation facilities resulting in secondary hazards. Thus, the mines’ serious disasters could happen. For many years, researchers have already done a great lot of works to study damages caused by the impact of shock waves of the gas explosions in underground mines. Research results provide a baseline for judgments of hazard effects by explosions. In this paper, the formation mechanism of the gas explosion shock wave is introduced firstly. Then, the damages for underground facilities, such as mechanical equipment, roadway, and life-saving devices are summarized and reviewed. Finally, a brief discussion about the methods is given, and some preliminary suggestions are also listed for improvements in the future.

Ground Subsidence Evolution from 1000 m Deep Mining: A Case Study in Fengfeng Mining Area

The mining of coal resources in eastern China has entered the stage of deep mining, and many mines have reached the depth of 1000 meters. Different from shallow and moderate depth mining, the temporal and spatial evolution regulation of surface movement and deformation under deep mining has its particularity. Combining with the geological and mining conditions of Fengfeng mining area, this paper systematically studies the characteristics of surface movement under the condition of shallow, moderate, and near kilometer mining depth. By means of field measurement, InSAR monitoring, we get the subsidence data under different mining depth and get the relevant subsidence parameters by inversion. Through comparative analysis, the special law of subsidence under the mining depth of 1000 meters is obtained. The results show that under the condition of nearly 1000 meters mining depth, the surface movement and deformation have the characteristics of large displacement angle, small displacement deformation value, and large main influence radius. The regulation of small proportion of active period of maximum subsidence point, gentle shape of surface movement basin, and low mining adequacy are obtained. The research results provide technical references for deep mining under buildings, railways, and water bodies and provide basis and reference for scientific mining and safe recovery of coal pillars in kilometer deep mine.

Influence of Mine Earthquake Disturbance on the Principal Stress of the Main Roadway near the Goaf and Its Prevention and Control Measures

With the reduction and depletion of shallow energy, the mining depth of coal around the world is increasing year by year, and the mining depth of some coal mines in China has reached kilometers. The main roadway near the goaf with the deep high static stress is very easy to be damaged after being disturbed by the mine earthquake. Taking the main roadway in the no. 1 mining area of Gaojiapu coal mine in Binchang mining area, Shaanxi Province, China, as the engineering background, the high-energy mine earthquake monitored by the on-site microseism is equivalently simulated through the dynamic module of FLAC3D, and the spatial-temporal rotation characteristics of the principal stress of roadway surrounding rock under the disturbance of mine earthquake are studied and analyzed and put forward corresponding prevention and control measures. Research shows early stage of mine earthquake disturbance, roadway roof is first affected, and the principal stress of the roof has the trend of deflection to the side of the goaf. In the middle stage of mine earthquake disturbance, the main body of roof principal stress deflects to the side of goaf, and the deflection range is large. In the later stage of mine earthquake disturbance, the principal stress directions in the surrounding rock reverse rotation, and the reverse rotation angle of the principal stress direction in the roof is the largest. Finally, the asymmetric distribution characteristics of principal stress rotation are verified by using the asymmetric deformation phenomenon on both sides of roadway surrounding rock. Based on the rotation characteristics of principal stress under the dual influence of mine earthquake disturbance and goaf, optimize the layout scheme and blasting parameters of blasting pressure relief holes. The transmission direction of principal stress can be changed by blasting pressure relief method; meanwhile, the transmission of principal stress can be blocked; through the comparison of microseismic activity law before and after pressure relief, pressure relief effect is good. The research results can provide a certain reference basis for coal mine roadway pressure relief and reducing disaster conditions.

Improving Technical-Economical Performance at Praid Saline Way of Rock Salt Roadheader Mechanized Mining

Increasing the mining depth at Praid Saline and implicitly the state of stresses and strains determines an increase in the dimensions of resistance structures (pillars and ceilings). Furthermore, the seismic effect generated by the detonation of explosives contributes to the degradation of resistance structures. In order to reduce the destructive effect of drilling-blasting technology a proposal is made for the implementation of mechanized salt cutting technology which makes use of a roadheader. This article emphasizes the technical-economical implementation advantages of exploitation from the lower horizons of the New Sector, those of mechanized mining with a roadheader as opposed to the classical technology of drilling-blasting.

Study on the Settlement Mechanism with Effect of Backfilling Method of an Underground Mine

The study on the subsidence of backfill mining block has been a concern of many scholars. A mechanical model of plate subsidence is established by studying the roof of a filling mining area in Luo Iron Mine in this paper. The boundary conditions are given, and the Navier method is used to solve the problem. Based on the thin plate model, the subsidence distribution map of the roof of the underground plate area is obtained. Based on the basic calculation parameters, the influence of a different foundation coefficient, mining depth, length-width ratio of plate area, elastic modulus of roof rock, and thickness of roof on the subsidence of roof is studied. According to the deflection calculation formula obtained, the expression of the internal force and stress is deduced, and the distribution of stress and shear stress on the upper and lower surfaces of the roof is analyzed. The dangerous area of the roof can be obtained, which provides a theoretical basis for the daily maintenance of mine safety.
