Underground extraction methodology of contiguous coal ...
2020-1-1 1. Introduction. The presence of multiple coal seams imposes major challenges of safety issues during their extraction by underground mining (Sheorey et al., 1987, Campoli et al., 1995, Alejano et al., 1999, Sheorey et al., 2000, Wiles, 2002, Poulsen, 2010, Yang, 2010).In India, the two coal seams are called contiguous, if the thickness of the parting formation between the two coal seams is ...

Commonly used mining techniques to extract coal - ICSC
2018-1-25 As mining of coal depends on the depth and quality of the coal seams, different techniques are used to dig the deposits. Surface mining and deep underground mining are the two main methods of mining coal. Depth, density, and thickness of the coal seam are the factors that are taken into account while selecting the mining method for coal extraction.

2021-9-16 Most coal seams are too deep underground for opencast mining and thus type of mining is called underground mining. Underground mining currently accounts for about 60% of world coal production. In deep mining, the room and pillar method moves along the seam, while pillars and timber are left standing to support the coal mine roof.

Rebung Coal Coal Mining
SURFACE MINING. Surface mining, also known as opencast or opencut mining is an economic method when the coal seams arefound closer to the surface. This method recovers a sizeable proportion of the coal deposit when compared to the underground mining as more than 90% of the coal seams are already exploited. Large opencast mines can cover an area ...
