Mechanism of Coal Bursts Induced by Horizontal Section ...

Coal bursts occurring in steeply inclined coal seams (SICSs) are increasingly severe. To solve this problem, a mechanical model for the distribution of static stress on coal-rock masses along panels and the distribution of dynamic load induced by the breakage of thick and hard roofs with propagation distance was established. The stress characteristics after a superposition of dynamic and ...

Coal Mining 101 – The Coal Seam

The typical method of assessing surface mining economics for a coal seam is a calculation of overburden (native rock and soil above a coal seam) moved per clean ton of coal produced, commonly referred to as "mining ratio". The higher the mining ratio (or more overburden moved per clean coal ton), the higher the cost of producing coal.

Creative mining methods have been evaluated to optimize production in steep seams, and thick seams in particular. These methods involve mining the openings at shallower gradients by mining cross-seam or at an angle to the highwall. Other techniques applicable to increase production include multi-pass, multi-lift, and alternate depth methods.
