The longwall method of mining in underground coal seams is very efficient in uniform seams, but coal seam anomalies can make the method unprofitable and unsafe. This paper describes the theoretical basis for detection of coal seam anomalies using medium frequency (MF) radio transmission over paths on the order of 200 m in length. The key to the method is the sensitivity of the attenuation rate
06/05/2013 Generally, longwall mining is restricted to seams with uniform geology and coal seam thickness while room and pillar mining is more adaptable to seams with varying thickness, uniformity and geologic settings. Room-and-Pilllar. A cross section of a common room-and-pillar underground mine. Room and pillar mining is defined by the fact that portions of the coal seam being extracted are left in
A coal seam is a dark brown or black banded deposit of coal that is visible within layers of rock. These seams are located underground and can be mined using either deep mining or strip mining techniques depending on their proximity to the surface. These seams undergo normal coal formation and serve as a conventional coal resource. The reserves of coal are immense, and are the largest of all
Coal seam gas, also known as coal bed methane, is a natural, colorless, odorless mixture of various gases (primarily methane) that is extracted from coal at a depth of ∼200–1000 m. The chemical composition of CSG and conventional gas is the same. Conventional natural gas reservoirs largely consist of porous sandstone formations capped by impermeable rock. The primary difference between
Coal seams with high risk spontaneous combustion based on cross over temperature values. The following table presents a list of coal seams which laboratory tests indicated were at high or medium
The Pennine Lower Coal Measures have a relatively uniform thickness across the coalfield, but in west Cumbria, the Pennine Middle Coal Measures show an overall thickening from south-east to north-west, suggesting that by then the Lake District Block was a positive, though not necessarily emergent, area. Unlike the situation in Northumberland, the position of the Subcrenatum Marine Band, and
The Busty Seam is the principal coal between the Harvey (Beaumont of Northumberland) and the Brockwell Seams, and at a few areas is a single seam, 5 to 6 feet thick. Occasionally it has two thin bands in it and the presence of these is generally accepted as characteristic of the seam. In most areas of the Durham coalfield one of the bands thickens, and in places where it is more than 20 feet
The dip of a coal seam influences the direction in which longwall mining takes place in that when the dip exceeds 30 Non-uniform subsidence therefore may occur above a panel when abnormally thick beds of sandstone are present in the overburden or when facies changes give rise to irregular displacements in other rock units. In addition, bed separation can occur between competent and weak
24 行 The coal seams worked in the South Yorkshire Coalfield lie mainly in the middle coal
THE IDENTIFICATION OP COAL SEAMS 259 These difficulties in the correlation of the Coal Measures have arisen mainly from the nature of the sediments and the fossils found in them. For as has already been suggested, the sediments are on the whole of uniform character, showing a fairly regular
13/02/2021 The research focused mainly on determining a uniform method for estimating gas loss using the early adsorption diffusion process. The method of coal sample saturation with methane was used to measure gas desorption rate. Saturation pressures of samples were determined for coal seams in the Upper-Silesian Coal Basin. The analysis of desorption results allowed to determine the
18/09/2019 Trends: Some seams have widespread partings with uniform thickness at mine scale. The Fire Clay (Hazard No. 4) coal bed in eastern Kentucky has a flint-clay parting across much of the coal field. The Herrin (W. Ky. No. 11) coal bed in western Kentucky has a shale parting (blue band) across much of its extent. Widespread partings are part of mining and easily mitigated by coal processing (coal
01/07/2021 The stepped loadings were applied on the top side of a sample to simulate the non-uniform loading on the coal seam. The proposed integrity coefficient was used to evaluate the failures of the coal seam. Results show that in the advancing process of a working face, the coal seam undergoes a complex fracturing process and the fracturing of coal seam is closely related to the distance from the
No. 4 coal seams are the two main mineable coal seams of the Hexi coal mine, and the former is the subject of the study in this research. The average thickness of the No. 3 coal seam is 1.91 m, and the average dip angle ranges between 3 and 5 . The surface of the Hexi coal mine is covered by continuous loess, which is characterized by specific

12/08/2021 Introduction. Shallow coal seams in Jurassic Coalfield are generally characterized by shallow depth (less than 300 m), small interburden (strata between upper and lower coal seam) thickness (less than 45 m), and 2–3 coal seams are mainly mined, consequently, it belongs to shallow coal seam group mining.
Additionally, coal seam thickness and geology are factors in the selection of a mining method. The most economical method of coal extraction for surface mines is the electric shovel or drag line. The most economical form of underground mining is the long wall, which is a shear blade that runs along sections of the coal seam. Many coals extracted from both surface and underground mines require
coal seams, is primarily stored as a sorbate on the internal surface area of the microporous coal. Injection of CO 2 into deep seams initiates a displacement desorption process whereby adsorbed methane is displaced by the injected CO 2. CO 2-ECBM in coalbed reservoirs is broadly analogous to CO 2 enhanced (oil) recovery. However, coalbeds are distinc-tively different from the conventional
15/06/2015 Coal seams are rarely homogeneous throughout their thickness, most are divisable into distinct lithological sections. Plies are lithological subdivisions of the seam, each of which has a uniform character. When the lithology changes, such as at a clay parting in the seam, a separate ply is designated. Where the roof and floor of a seam

The sandstones of the former are uniform throughout the area. The north and north-eastward diminution in thickness of the succession, In the Coleford area the formation contains two coal seams which, farther south-east come together to form the 1.4 m-thick Trenchard Seam. South-west of a line drawn roughly north-west — south-east through Coleford, the Trenchard Formation consists of

that all coal seams have a uniform strength. An example of the variation in the type and frequency of discontinuities at three sites in different coal seams were as follows: Site 1 is in the Witbank coal field where most of the coal is mined in South Africa. The seam lies at a depth of 120 m and has been extensively supported by pillars. Site 2 is in the Vereeniging coal field, where it is
