WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Modern underground coalmining methods can be classified into four distinct categories: roomandpillar, longwall, shortwall, and thickseam. Roomandpillar mining In this method, a number of parallel entries are driven into the coal seam.
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Methods of extraction Coal extraction methods vary depending on whether the mine is an underground mine or a surface (also called open cast) mine. Additionally, coal seam thickness and geology are factors in the selection of a mining method. The most economical method of coal extraction for surface mines is the electric shovel or drag line.

Coal mining was started during the rule of the East India Company in 1774 in the Raniganj coalfield along the western bank of the Damodar river. To increase coal production, the focus of ...
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Introduction. Since the early 1980s, longwall mining has developed into the safest, highest producing and most productive form of underground coal mining, rivalling the performance of many surface mining operations. In Australia, for example, advances in technology, geotechnical engineering and work practices over that period have resulted ...

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Highwall 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.
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Mining coal was incredibly dangerous work. During the industrial coal boom between 1880 and 1923, more than 70,000 miners died on the job. Many more perished from occupational diseases, but weren't tallied in official statistics. Miners were crushed to death in roof collapses, killed by gas explosions and by machinery, and more.
