Coal Geology & Exploration

Due to the complex response law of the surface-borehole Transient Electromagnetic Method (TEM), qualitative analysis and semi-quantitative interpretation are the most widely used interpretation methods. However, the methods cannot obtain the resistivity parameter of the earth directly. To solve this problem, a fast quantitative interpretation method based on transient impulse peak time is proposed. Firstly, the expression of uniform half-space surface-borehole transient electromagnetic response is given, and the impulse time characteristics of surface-borehole transient electromagnetic response are analyzed. The results show that the deeper the receiving point is buried and the higher the earth conductivity is, the later the transient …

Deep mineral exploration is a challenge. The borehole Transient Electromagnetic Method (TEM) goes deep underground through the sensor along the borehole, and gets closer to the deep target, so as to improve the ore discovery rate and prospecting effect. TEM is widely used in deep prospecting and exploration in foreign countries, and has achieved many important results. However, in China, due to the slow development of instruments, theoretical research and interpretation technology, it is less used in practical deep prospecting. This paper introduces a typical case about the 2 000 m deep prospecting in Baiyun Gold Deposit in Qingchengzi, Liaoning …

In the borehole transient electromagnetic method (TEM), the receiving probe is placed in the borehole, which is different from either aerial or ground TEM. In such methods, as the probe will be closer to the detection target and far away from surface, not only stronger response signals can be observed, but also the interference of various electromagnetic signals outside the borehole can be attenuated effectively. It can meet the demand of meticulous detection with large burial, especially the detection demand of deep blind ore and water hazard. The present situation of using various methods in the study in forward modeling, …

Techniques Of Double-Pipe And Double-Acting Directional Drilling With Air In Broken And Soft Coal Seams In Underground Coal Mines, Wang Li

Coal Geology & Exploration

In the broken and soft coal seam drilling, the outburst and collapse of the hole occur easily, resulting in shallow drilling depth and low rate of hole forming, which seriously restrict the efficient gas control in the broken and soft coal seam. With the rise of gas control models, such as replacing roadway with holes and progressive drainage of the broken and soft coal seam, higher requests have been put forward to the gas drainage hole. The further improvement of the drilling depth, drilling accuracy and hole forming rate of the broken and soft coal seam can meet the needs …

Evaluation Of Various Data Acquisition Scenarios For The Retrieval Of Seismic Body Waves From Ambient Noise Seismic Interferometry Technique Via Numerical Modeling, Haitao Cao, Erdi Apatay, Garvie Crane, Boming Wu, Ke Gao, Roohollah Askari

Michigan Tech Publications, Part 1

Seismic interferometry is often proposed as a cost-efficient technique for reservoir monitoring including CO2 sequestration due to its low cost and environmental advantages over active source imaging. Although many studies have demonstrated the ability of seismic interferometry to retrieve surface waves, body wave imaging remains challenging due to their generally lower amplitudes of body waves in seismic interferometry data. An optimum data acquisition strategy can help retrieve low amplitude body waves better, however, rare attempts have been made to evaluate various data acquisition strategies. In this study, we use numerical modeling to examine three different acquisition schemes to evaluate the …

Michigan Tech Publications, Part 1

Geostatistical estimation methods rely on experimental variograms that are mostly erratic, leading to subjective model fitting and assuming normal distribution during conditional simula-tions. In contrast, Machine Learning Algorithms (MLA) are (1) free of such limitations, (2) can in-corporate information from multiple sources and therefore emerge with increasing interest in real-time resource estimation and automation. However, MLAs need to be explored for robust learning of phenomena, better accuracy, and computational efficiency. This paper compares MLAs, i.e., Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) and Random Forest (RF), with Ordinary Kriging (OK). The techniques were applied to the publicly available Walkerlake dataset, while the exhaustive …

Study On The Effect Of Coal Microscopic Pore Structure To Its Spontaneous Combustion Tendency, Xianwei Dong, Gaojing Li, Xuanmeng Dong, Fusheng Wang

Journal of Sustainable Mining

Coal is a porous medium. Due to the large number of pores in coal and the pore size on its surface, usually ranging from millimeter to nanometer, it is difficult to measure and analyze the microscopic pore structure of coal. In order to investigate the effect of the microscopic pore structure of coal on its spontaneous combustion tendency, coal samples from different coal mines of the Kailuan Group were selected as the research objects, and the data of the microscopic pore distribution of three different coal samples were measured by using mercury injection apparatus. The regression analysis of microscopic pore …

An Acid Baking Approach To Enhance Heavy Rare Earth Recovery From Bituminous Coal-Based Sources, Ahmad Nawab, Xinbo Yang, Rick Q. Honaker

Mining Engineering Faculty Publications

The recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from secondary resources, particularly coal-based materials, has recently received attention due to supply and demand imbalance. Research reported to date indicates that a high REE recovery can be realized when treating bituminous coal sources using strong acid solutions of approximately100 g/L or higher. This study introduces an approach to enhance the total rare earth recovery (TREE), especially for heavy rare earth elements (HREEs), from these coal sources at significantly lower acid concentrations. Based on the presence of REE minerals like monazite and xenotime, a detailed investigation was undertaken to quantify three pre-leach treatment …
