The correlation was found sufficiently reliable to enable the determination of optimum powder factor for surface bench blast in different rock types maintaining ...
To overcome the difficulties of overburden failure and surface subsidence induced by the slicing mining of extrathick coal seams, slicing filler paste is typically utilized. In this paper, a continuous curved beam mechanical model of paste filling mining was established by theoretical analysis against the background of the 3305 working face of Yangcheng Coal Mine, the main controlling factors ...
total required drilling, powder factor, and delay times. ANFO and emulsions are the most common explosives agents used in WV surface coal mines, and they are considered in this study. The total drilling and blasting cost is determined. In module III, production rates for hydraulic shovels, electric (rope) shovels, and frontend wheel loaders are
On a long wall face, the shot holes are drilled at an angle of 45° to 60° to the face; a coal face m high requires 3 rows of shot holes and distance of holes in the same in the same row should be nearly m. Powder factor with solid blasting is to te of coal per kg of explosive and to te of coal per detonator.
In mining, overburden (also called waste or spoil) is the material that lies above an area that lends itself to economical exploitation, such as the rock, soil, and ecosystem that lies above a coal seam or ore body. Spoils. waste material brought up during the course of an excavation or a dredging or mining operation. Open pit mining.
Highwall mining is a coal mining method for recovery of outcropped coal by mechanical excavation without removal of overburden. A continuous miner with single or multiple ... other factors. Figure 2 shows a comparison of the annual produ ction rates and producti vities of US coal mines. Surface mines have very few limitations on the operation ...
In this light the present study was conducted in opencast coal mines to see the effect of Schmidt ... Powder factor, Schmidt hammer, Rebound number, Rock mass, Overburden bench *** 1. INTRODUCTION Rock mass comprises several different rock types and is affected by different degrees of fracturing in varying stress ...
Coal dumps are also an important factor in the environmental degradation because the potentially toxic elements are directly released to the environment through the leaching and oxidation of pyrite. ... and overburden samples (LOB15A, LOB15B) (dump sites) were collected from the Ledo colliery (India). The coal and overburden samples were ...
This paper presents an investigation on the interactions of overburden failure zones induced by the mining of adjacent coal seams using the longwall caving method. Overburden failure is an important factor in safety assessments in the fields of mining engineering geology and safety geology, especially when mining under water bodies. In this study, the influence of the thickness and properties ...
Overburden removal is a major activity of surface coal mining and accounts for over 6070% of the costs. Cast blasting is integral to overburden removal using draglines.
Powder factor: Mass of explosives used per BCM rock blasted. Softs: Material that can be free dig or can be remove by mechanical means without the use of chemical energy. Hards: Material that requires chemical energy to break in order for it to be ... The costeffectiveness of removing overburden from the underlying coal seams ("overburden ...
In blasting operations for removal of the overburden rocks, which have little or no inherent value, the powder factor is expressed in kg/m 3 [ 5 ]. Generally, the powder factor value varies from as low as to as much as kg/m 3 with kg/m 3 being the most common, in the open pit mines [ 6 ].
blasting process measures like the powder factor, the charge length, the amount of explosives used per charge (blast) will be considered and the overburden fragment size will be determined to improve productivity and cost. ... overburden removal. Coal mining processes (in sequence) Top soil removal
"Large surface coal mines in Wyoming's Powder River Basin ship millions of tons of coal per annum, moving millions of cubic yards of overburden to mine the coal. Much of this volume is blasted in the form of benches, a common mining technique. Increases in production and scale of equipment in the past thirtyfive years have created a paradigm shift for drill and blast personnel at these large ...
Abstract Drill and blast is the excavation method adopted to remove overburden material at the open pit coal mine of PT Buma Job Site Lati. Recently, the company applied deep hole drilling for blasting with double rods to reach the depth of 1018 m. ... Correlation of powder factors used for overburden preparation with physical properties of ...
Please give me a detailed explanation answer. An overburden of shale will be removed using 200mm holes and 12m benches. Dry rock conditions are anticipated, and the decision is to use bulk ANFO with emulsion cartridges as a primer. The density of compacted ANFO is g/cm3, and the PF (powder factor) is expected to be not less than kg/m3.
The results showed that the optimum hole spacing was no more than m and the powder factor was no more than kg/m 3, and it proved that an effective casting percentage (ECP) of 34% could be realized. 1. Introduction Blastcasting practice in opencast coal mines is characterised by large blast hole diameter and large charges.

The removal of overburden is the first step in a coal winning operation, so as to expose underlying coal for excavation. The overburden material being a waste and nonmarketable
the powder factor, ... Dragline is an HEMM used in coal mining for removal of overburden and dumping it into decoaled area. Failure of dragline contributed to total downtime of 4955 h in 28month ...
The Cenozoicage Makum coal from northeastern India offers numerous research opportunities because of its diverse geochemical and geological characteristics. Due to its high sulfur content, the coal has been found to be less useful for industrial purposes. It can, however, serve as a hub for ongoing research on coalbased derivative products. The aim of this research work is to investigate the ...

Overburden at a coal mining site. In mining, overburden (also called waste or spoil) is the material that lies above an area that lends itself to economical exploitation, such as the rock, soil, and ecosystem that lies above a coal seam or ore body. Overburden is distinct from tailings, the material that remains after economically valuable components have been extracted from the generally ...
The panel was 207 m wide and 1932 m long. The lower 35 coal seam dips at 1° to 4° with a thickness of 18 m. The completed adjoining 8105 panel was separated by 38 m wide chain pillar. The longwall top coal caving (LTCC) method was employed with m mining height. The average depth of the coal seam was 450 m.
