The overall process of coal exploration and mining involves six separate but interdependent and overlapping components: • Exploration: the identification and geological assessment of a new coalbearing area; • Mine Design: the design and economic evaluation of the most appropriate mining operation to make use of the coal in that area;
Coal mining Prospecting, Exploration, Mining: The fundamental objective of coal prospecting is to discover coal resources through a search. In areas where coal mining has not been previously practiced, the search process should result in obtaining coal samples that give reasonable evidence of the existence of a coal seam. Once a seam has been discovered, considerable further work is ...
During the coal mining process, a significant amount of coal wastes is produced, including (1) mining wastes, (2) washery wastes, and (3) secondary processing wastes. Since 2017, the annual global CMWs are estimated to be 315 million tons for underground coal mining. This results in the disposal of a considerable volume of wastes at waste dumps.

Surface/open cast mining and deep underground mining are considered two basic methods for coal extraction globally. The rising trend of coal mining activities has resulted in the accumulation of mining and processing wastes with low carbon levels over the past few decades [6]. Fig. 1 presents different life cycle stages of coal with details of wastes generated at each stage.
Coal is the most abundant fossil fuel on Earth. Its predominant use has always been for producing heat energy. It was the basic energy source that fueled the Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries, and the industrial growth of that era in turn supported the largescale exploitation of coal deposits. Since the mid20th century, coal has yielded its place to petroleum and natural ...
• Choose one of the important factors in coal mining. Describe and define the factor and its use in coal mining. Create an illustration to help explain the factor and its impact on coal mining: the role of mules in the mines the jobs of the breaker boys in the mines the longwall mining method of bituminous mining
Process Overview Coal Mining The first step in the mining process is to explore and evaluate the coal deposit. These activities are generally explained in more detail in the opening chapter of this report. After exploration, if an economical deposit is determined, the extraction process begins. Coal is extracted principally in two ways:
It is significant to note that, among the various types of mining, openpit coal mining is one of the most destructive activities in terms of its impact on the surface landscape and the ...
Among their justifications for their decision was the notion that the mining of coala critical part of the process which the BCC and its Labor Board regulatedwas a local endeavor, not yet at the stage of interstate commerce and therefore subject to local regulations and out of the jurisdiction of Congress to regulate.

: Methane released from coal and surrounding rock strata as a result of mining activity. In some instances, methane that continues to be released from the coal bearing strata once a mine is closed and sealed may also be referred to as coal mine methane because the liberated methane is associated with past coal mining activity. This
In the mining process of a coal seam containing a fault structure, due to the influence of mining stress, the rock mass inside the fault zone and between the fault and the coal pillar that is preserved to prevent fault activation is prone to producing damage and activation. This study is focused on this problem. Based on the analysis of the failure, activation and movement of the rock mass in ...
Highwall mining is an adaptation of auger mining. Instead of an auger hole, an entry into the coal seam is made by a continuous miner, remotely operated from a cabin at the surface. The cut coal is transported by conveyors behind the miner to the outside. Using a television camera, the operator can see and control the miner's progress.
What Is Coal Preparation? • Coal preparation is the removal of undesirable material from the RunofMine (ROM) coal by employing separation processes which are able to differentiate between the physical and surface properties of the coal and the impurities. Through coal preparation, a uniform product is achieved.
The Indonesian coal industry is rather fragmented with only a few big producers and many small players that own coal mines and coal mine concessions (mainly in Sumatra and Kalimantan). Since the early 1990s, when the coal mining sector was reopened for foreign investment, Indonesia witnessed a robust increase in coal production, coal exports ...
