·Underground mining is going to be deeper gradually because near surface resources are going to be depleted Therefore risk of seismic events in underground mines is escalating
·Cost efficiency 4 Surface mining is generally more cost effective than underground extraction process is less complex and requires less capital and operational investment Safety 5 Generally surface mining is considered safer for miners compared to underground mining which has risks associated with unstable ground conditions
·Two general types of scrapers are employed underground—the box type and the hoe type Both are bottomless although some are constructed with a back plate curved forward to meet the floor at a flat angle forming a partial sloping bottom Figure
·Control of OHS risks in the mining industry has been attracting increasing attention in recent years Because of their great diversity in a complex system hazards can be difficult to identify and
·The Underground Mine The underground mine is a factory located in the bedrock inside the earth in which miners work to recover minerals hidden in the rock mass They drill charge and blast to access and recover the ore rock containing a mix of minerals of which at least one can be processed into a product that can be sold at a profit
We explored the various types of underground mining methods employed in Australia such as room and pillar mining longwall mining cut and fill mining sublevel caving and block caving We also discussed the specialised equipment safety measures and environmental considerations involved in underground mining operations highlighting the
UNDERGROUND MINING Underground mines are commonly used to reach deeper mineral deposits Sometimes miners may commence with surface mining then move to underground mining to dig to greater depth or follow narrower veins Underground coal mining is common where mining activities may be carried out in close proximity to built up areas
·Mining is the process of extracting useful materials from the earth Some examples of substances that are mined include coal gold or iron ore is the material from which the metal iron is The process of mining dates back to prehistoric Prehistoric people first mined flint which was ideal for tools and weapons since it breaks into
·Underground mining excavations entail excavation methods sequential excavation/extraction ratio depressurisation quality control of material and installation of ground support systems Wedge failure block fall squeezing rockburst ravelling pillar burst slabbing and blast damage are the common types of failure at the mine sites
·Underground mining is a technique for extracting ore from beneath the earth s surface in a safe cost effective and waste free manner A horizontal or vertical tunnel called as an adit shaft
·Wired telephone communication takes the telephone cable as the transmission channel which is commonly used in whole mineral communication Generally the switchboard is set in the ground control room the extension is set in the key points on the surface and underground of the mine and the explosion proof or mine intrinsically safe telephone is used
·Coal mining Underground Surface & Drilling The various methods of mining a coal seam can be classified under two headings surface mining and underground mining Surface and underground coal mining are broad activities that incorporate numerous variations in equipment and methods and the choice of which method to use in extracting a coal seam
·LHD or "Load Haul & Dump" machines are loaders that function similarly to the conventional front end These loaders are popular in underground mining operations where hard rock and other materials can be safely loaded and hauled between different sites of the LHD s are productivity oriented and used in more than 75 percent of the world s
·Back The ceiling or roof of an underground opening Backfill Waste material used to fill the void created by mining an orebody Background Minor amounts of radioactivity due not to abnormal amounts of radioactive minerals nearby but to cosmic rays and minor residual radioactivity in the vicinity Back sample A rock sample collected from the roof or
·Aspects of mining methods selection in both open pit and underground mining operations depend on key environmental and economic factors including Typically selective mining used for extracting the narrow vein type reefs Bulk mining methods are fully mechanised allowing the excavation of large volumes of ore These techniques enable
·Underground mining involves extracting rocks minerals or gemstones located too deep below ground for surface mining There are several types of underground mining including borehole mining drift mining hard rock mining shaft mining and slope mining Borehole mining uses drilled holes to break up material with water and pump it to the surface
Types of underground mining or subsurface mining Below are three common underground mining methods Room and pillar mining Room and pillar mining is the activity of extracting minerals from openings called rooms caved into ore seams This method includes excavating enclaves or rooms within the ore seam while leaving pillars in between to
·The underground mining for mineral exploitation comprises of mainly three stages viz making access to the orebody initial/box cut excavation and final excavation of ore The primary access to the underground mine is in the form of shaft incline decline or adit These accesses are made from the surface
·There are four main mining methods underground open surface pit placer and in situ mining Underground mines are more expensive and are often used to reach deeper deposits Surface mines are typically used for more shallow and less valuable deposits Placer mining is used to sift out valuable metals from sediments in river channels beach sands or
·Room and pillar mining can be more cost effective than other types of underground mining and is most commonly used for high grade small deep deposits The location of the pillars is especially important as they will maintain the integrity of the mine Room and pillar is a continuous area of research and improvement in the field of
Read this article to learn about the blasting techniques adopted in underground and opencast mines Blasting Techniques Adopted in Underground Mines Drilling Patterns in Stone Drilling patterns also called shot hole patterns are named after the type of cut holes used and the principal patterns are 1 Pyramid cut or cone cut 2 Wedge cut 3 Drage cut 4 Fan cut 5
The type of internal and external Fig 13 Monthly excavation amount and the number of micro Development of deep underground mining projects is crucial for optimum extraction of mineral
·There are several underground mining techniques used to excavate hard minerals usually those containing metals such as ore containing gold silver iron copper zinc nickel tin and lead but also for excavating ores of gems such as diamonds and rubies Underground mining methods
They include surface mining underground mining Placer mining and In situ mining 1 Surface Mining Surface mining is a type of mining activity that involves the extraction of minerals located near the surface of the Earth It is usually preferred over underground mining when mineral deposits are relatively shallow and close to the surface
·complete mining process A schematic layout of an underground mine is shown in Figure Three types of excavations employed in the process are recognised in the figure These are the ore sources or stopes the stope access and service openings or stope development and the permanent access and service openings Irrespective
