  • Coal Pillar Extraction by Continuous Miner Using Fish and Tail Method – a Case Study
    COAL PILLAR EXTRACTION BY CONTINUOUS MINER USING FISH AND TAIL METHOD – A CASE STUDY 1DEWANGAN PANKAJ, 2DAITHANKAR SUNIL, 3KUMAR VISHAL, 4SHEKHAR SIDDHARTH 1Associate Prof. and Head, Deptt. of Mining Engineering, NIT, Raipur, C.G., India 2General Manager (Mines), SMS Infrastructure, Pinoura Site 3,4Student, Final year Mining Engg., NIT, Raipur, C.G., India E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract - Opencast mining is the most prevalent method for coal extraction in India. Since underground coal mining requires high technical expertise, higher gestation period and higher capital investments, therefore opencast mining is more preferred for extracting coal deposits at shallow to moderate depths. In the last three decades, there has been a considerable increase in the production from opencast mines fulfilling over 80% of the country’s demand for coal. As a result, underground coal mining is still contributing only 15-20% production from 70% underground coal reserves. Most of the thick coal seam is found at greater depth and use of conventional method of underground mining is proved to be less efficient in giving a large production. The government is considering a push for underground mining to extract deep-seated coal to boost coal production but is facing challenges of resources and lack of machinery. One of the ways that can boost underground coal mining is through a piece of equipment called a continuous miner. It requires less investment and can work in difficult conditions, even in the absence of a long stretch of continuous deposition. This paper discusses the Mass Production Technology used in Pinoura Mines of Johilla area of South Eastern Coalfields Limited with depillaring by Fish and Tail method using Continuous Miner.

    UNIT – I PHYSIOGRAPHIC DIVISIONS OF INDIA Geological Structure 1. THE ARCHAEAN FORMATIONS (PRE-CAMBRIAN) The Archaean Era is also known as the Precambrian Period. The division of geologic time scale from the formation of the Earth (about 4.6 billion years ago) to the beginning of the Cambrian Period of the Paleozoic Era (about 570 million years ago}. The Precambrian time constitutes about 86.7% of the Earth's history. The term 'Archaean', introduced by J.D. Dana in 1782, refers to the oldest rocks of the Earth's crust. The oldest known rocks of the Earth, the evolutionary atmosphere, the first chemosynthesis, the first photosynthesis, the life-supporting atmosphere and the Earth's modem atmosphere, were developed during the Precambrian Era (Archaean and Protozoic). Rocks of the Archaean System are devoid of any form of life. The Archaean rocks are all azoic or non fossiliferous. They are thoroughly crystalline, extremely contorted and faulted, and practically devoid of any sediment. They are largely intruded by plutonic intrusions and generally have a well-defined foliated structure. These rocks are known as the basement complex or fundamental gneisses. Cover two-thirds of Peninsular India. In the Peninsular region, the Archaean rocks are known to be of three well-defined types: a) The Bengal Gneiss occurs in the Eastern Ghats, Orissa (known as Khodoliles after Khond tribes in Koraput and Bolangir districts), stretching over Manbhum and Hazaribagh districts of Jharkhand, Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh and Salem district of Tamil Nadu. Occur in the Son Valley, Meghalaya Plateau and Mikir HiUs. Thinly foliated.

The Coal bearing sediments recovered from the sub-surface samples (borehole WBPS-1) have been characterized with two distinct palynoassemblage i.e. Palynoassemblage I and Palynoassemblage II. Palynoassemblage I (540.6m to 92.1m) is dominated by the abundance of non-striate bisaccate genera represented by Schueringipollenites and sub-dominance of striate bisaccate Striatopodocarpites and Faunipollenites whereas Palynoassemblage II (41.13m) is characterized by the predominance of Faunipollenites and Striatopodocarpites and sub-dominance of non-striate bisaccate Schueringipollenites along with the good percentage of pteridophytic spores. The recovered Palynoassemblages (I and II) have been compared with the known biostratigraphic zones of the other basin and suggested its equivalence to the Lower Barakar (Artinskian age) and Upper Barakar (Kungurian age) palynoflora respectively.

(Received 09 December 2004; revised version accepted 16 August 2005) ABSTRACT Ram-Awatar, Kumar M and Prakash N 2005. Palynological analysis of Lower Gondwana sediments exposed along the Umrar River, South Rewa Basin, Madhya Pradesh, India. Palaeobotanist 54: 87-97. The palynflora and other organic content in carbon?ceous shales, exposed along Umrar River, District Umaria have been studied. The organic matter comprises rich black debris, biodegraded, amorphous and structured material, mainly composed ofland-derived plant fragments, e.g., leaf cuticles, twigs, stem (elements with bordered pits, xylem and phloem tissues) and roots with their various degradational phases. The basal part ofthe sequence indicates reducing environment ofdeposition while upper part denotes a slow depositional setting under moderately oxidizing conditions. Two palynozones have been recognized: the basal-most sequence is characterized by the dominance ofCa{{umispora and Jayal1lisporiles, wh iIe the younger sequence is dominated by Parasacciles-Plicalipo{{enites and zonate triletes in association with striate-bisaccate pollen affiliated to the Lower and Upper Karharbari miofloras. Record of Dictyotidium, Muraticava, Leiosphaeridia, Ba{l1Iee{{a, Foveofilsa and Tetraporil1a suggests a brackish water regime during deposition of these sediments. The present study deals with the age of spores-pollen assemblages and the characteristics of organic matter in order to assess the depositional environment of lithologically undifferentiated, coal­ bearing Early Permian strata of South Rewa Basin, Madhya Pradesh.

Palynostratigraphy and palaeoenvironment of the Permian sediments in Mand Coalfield, Mahanadi Basin, Chhattisgarh, India. The Palaeobotanist 67(2): 185–200. Palynological investigation of 483.00 m deep subsurface Permian sediments of borehole MSK–1, in Sithra–Kurekela Block of Mand Coalfield, revealedfour distinct palynoassemblage zones. These palynoassemblages belong to Lower and Upper Barakar (Early Permian), Barren Measures and Raniganj (Late Permian) palynofloras of Indian Gondwana. The oldest Palynoassemblage–I, (Scheuringipollenites barakarensis) recorded between 483.60–309.00 m depths, shows dominance of non–striate bisaccate pollen grains chiefly ―Scheuringipollenites followed by Faunipollenites in association with Indotriradites, Dentatispora, Verrucosispora and Microbaculispora related to Lower Barakar palynoflora. Palynoassemblage–II, (Faunipollenites varius) recorded between 303.40–139.40 m depths, showing the dominance of Faunipollenites in association with Scheuringipollenites, Striatopodocarpites, Brevitriletes, Horriditriletes and Striamonosaccites, indicates Upper Barakar

Palynoflora] investigations carried out on bore· hole samples from Shobhapur Block, Pathakhera Coalfield in Madhya Pradesh revealed two distinct palynofloral assemblages. Assemblage Zone·! is rich in radial monosaccates, chiefly Par-asaccites and includes the lowermost coal seam of the area, the Bagdona Seam Assemblage Zone·2 is charaCterised by the dominance of nonsrriate·disaccate-scheunnglpollenites, distributed in the younger coal seams including lower (~iddle) and upper (Top workable). Assemblage Zone·!, corresponding to the known Upper Karharbari palynofloras, establishes the existence of Karharbari sediments in Shobhapur Block of Pathakhera Coalfield, which were hitherto assigned to Barakar Formation The Barakar palynoflora has continued into the lower part of Motur Formation in bore· hole no CMPS 43 of Shobhapur Block.
