Arbitrary mining activities done by previous small-scale mines left many irregular damage zones in the ultra-thick coal seam, consequently leading to serious roof caving disasters and recovery ratio decline during repeated mining. Pre-filling the damage zones is an effective method to prevent mining-induced geological disasters. In this study, a novel method regarding damage zone filling ...

The miners stand on top of the broken ore and work at the back. As broken ore takes up more space than ore in a solid mass, about 35 to 40 per cent, of it must be drawn to leave room for working. Advantages: Raises may be placed far apart. The broken ore serves as a support to the walls. This does away with the necessity for much timber.

Longwall Top Coal Caving (LTCC) is a thick coal seam mining method which uses the Single Pass Longwall (SPL) method for extracting the lower section while the upper section (top coal) is mined by means of caving. The mining height in LTCC, compared to other methods, may result in roof instabilities such as caving and weighting.

There are many extra-thick coal seams in China, and the primary mining method is fully mechanized top coal caving (Yasitli and Unver 2005, Huang et al 2007, 2011).Because the top coal is thick, and the amount of gas emissions in the working face is large, the 'U + I' ventilation method is usually applied, i.e. setting a high-level gas drainage lane parallel to and near the ...

Abstract:- Thick coal mine operations have various methods. If the thick coal seam cannot be mined by single pass longwall (SPL), then Longwall top coal caving (LTCC) method or multi slice longwall (MSL) can be employed. In Turkey, caving methods are commonly used in mining of thick coal seams as long as the roof strata are suitable for their use.
