Developmental Pattern Of Water Flowing Fractured Zones In The Soil-Bedrock-Type Overburden And Water-Controlled Mining Strategy Under A Super-Large Mining Height, Zhang Yujun, Hua Zhaolai, Song Yejie, Hu Haoyu, Li Jiawei

Coal Geology & Exploration

Background The heights of water flowing fractured zones represent a key concern in the prevention and control of water disasters occurring in mining face roofs and water resource protection of coal mines. Varying lithologies and structures of the overburden are identified as primary factors governing the height and characteristic differences of water flowing fractured zones. Methods Against the engineering background of a mining face with 10 m super-large mining height in the Caojiatan Coal Mine of Shaanxi Province, this study investigated the differences in the mining-induced responses of the soil-bedrock-type overburden using numerical simulations of stress-seepage coupling and measured heights …

Objective and Significance As the coal mining depth increases, coal mining faces increasingly prominent challenges including coal and gas outbursts, rock bursts, and compound dynamic disasters. Deepening the understanding of disaster-causing mechanisms and developing diversified prevention and control technologies are significant for the safe production of coal mines. Employing the key technologies for coalbed methane (CBM) production to control gas-related dynamic disasters is an inevitable course for the safe production of coal mines. However, large-scale, suitable technology systems are yet to be developed. Methods From the perspective of the application of key technologies for surface CBM production, this study systematically …

Advances First, research on the coal …


Geological-Engineering Integrated Reconnaissance Survey Technology For Skylights As A Hidden Disaster-Causing Factor, Dong Mintao Feb 2025

Geological-Engineering Integrated Reconnaissance Survey Technology For Skylights As A Hidden Disaster-Causing Factor, Dong Mintao

Coal Geology & Exploration

Objective Skylights represent a primary hidden disaster factor in mines in the southern Yushen mining area within the Shanbei Jurassic coalfield, Shaanxi Province. Since they are hidden and difficult to detect, their distribution in the mining area remains unclear, posing pronounced safety hazards. This necessitates developing effective technical means to overcome challenges in the spatial exploration of skylights and ensure mine safety. Methods Focusing on a typical mine in the Yushen mining area as an example, this study explored the spatial distribution characteristics and types of skylights in the study area using the geological-engineering integrated reconnaissance survey technology that combines …

Coal Geology & Exploration

The coal mining induced ground fissures in the loess covered area of northwest China cause shallow groundwater resource leakage and soil instability. Therefore, the experimental study was conducted on Microbial Induced Carbonate Precipitation (MICP) restoration of coal mining induced ground fissures in the loess covered area. Specifically, the characteristics of mining induced ground fissures were observed and their development characteristics were revealed based on Ningtiaota Coal Mine in northern Shaanxi. The coal mining induced ground fissures in loess were classified with consideration to the observed mine pressure. Based on the classification and characteristics of coal mining induced ground fractures, the …


Evolution Law Of Water Inflow In Full Life Cycle Of Working Face In Deep Buried Inner Mongolia-Shaanxi Mining Area, Liu Yang, Yang Jian, Zhou Jianjun Dec 2022

Evolution Law Of Water Inflow In Full Life Cycle Of Working Face In Deep Buried Inner Mongolia-Shaanxi Mining Area, Liu Yang, Yang Jian, Zhou Jianjun

Coal Geology & Exploration

The deep buried Inner Mongolia-Shaanxi mining area was newly developed, where the hydrogeological characteristics under the disturbance of coal mining were still unclear. Various types of water damage problems had occurred in the process of infrastructure construction and production. Among them, no research was conducted for the variation characteristics of water inflow during and after mining in working face, which increased the difficulty in the arrangement of underground water drainage system and the work of water prevention and control. In order to find out the evolution law of water inflow in the full life cycle of working face before and …

Influencing Factors On Gas Production Effect Of Acid Fractured Cbm Wells In Deep Coal Seam Of Daning-Jixian Block, Li Shuguang, Wang Hongna, Xu Borui, Zhen Huaibin, Wang Chengwang, Yuan Pu

Coal Geology & Exploration

The No.8 deep coal seam in Daning-Jixian Block is large, thick, widely distributed, and rich in coalbed methane(CBM) resources. After volume acid fracturing, a breakthrough has been achieved in the producing test. However, the productivity of the testing wells varies greatly, and the major controlling factors of productivity are not clear, severely restricting the CBM development. In this paper, the testing wells in the No.8 coal seam with a buried depth of more than 2 000 m of the Upper Carboniferous Benxi Formation in Daning-Jixian Block were taken as the research object, and 28 typical evaluation indicators were selected from …

Discussion On Roof Water Loss Control Method Of Coal Seam Based On Pre-Splitting Grouting Reformation(P-G), Zhao Chunhu, Wang Hao, Jin Dewu

Coal Geology & Exploration

In view of the technical requirements of roof water disaster prevention and water resources collaborative protection faced by coal mining in western coal mining area, this paper puts forward a technical idea of roof water loss control based on pre-splitting grouting reformation(P-G) according to the strain strength theory of material mechanics and the statistical results of mining fracture zones of different overburden types. The basic principle is that the continuous bedrock layer will be fractured into discontinuous rock layers by fracturing technology, and by weakening the “tip effect” of upward expansion of mining induced water flowing fracture in hard rock …

Coal Geology & Exploration

Liupan Shan lies between the Tibetan plateau and Ordos block and has been under the remote effect of the northeastward extension of the Tibetan plateau. The former research about the uplift of Liupan Shan mainly focused on the petrology, structural deformation or tectonic evolution study from the Cretaceous to early period of Cenozoic. However, the Late Pleistocene geological study closely connected with the human activities was rarely mentioned. In this study, we carried out systematic sedimentary research in the Qingshuihe basin adjacent to the Liupan Shan tectonic belt, re-determine the sedimentary sequence at first, then reverse the uplift history of …

Investigation On Structural Evolution And Thermal Reaction Of Coal-Based Graphite From Xinhua County, Hunan Province, Li Kuo, Liu Qinfu, Song Botao, Zhang Shuai, Wu Yingke

Coal Geology & Exploration

To investigate the structural evolution and thermal reaction of coal-based graphite with different graphitization,the anthracite and coal-based graphite from Xinhua County, Hunan were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high resolution transformation electron microscope(HRTEM), and temperature programmed oxidation (TPO). The results show that carbon structure transformed from the amorphous anthracite to three dimensionally ordered graphite as graphitization degree increases. The coal-based graphite samples with different graphitization degree are composed of multi carbon phases, suggesting a heterogeneous nature of coal-based graphite, and ordered carbon phases were common in higher rank samples, however, defects can still be detected in most metamorphosed coal-based graphite. …
