This paper presents a comprehensive study of the stress distribution and stability analysis of a uniquely shaped roadway having a steeply dipping hard roof. The coal seam and its roof have a certain impact tendency, which is the internal condition of rock burst. The syncline tectonic stress causes the original rock stress to reach a higher level. The large amount of coal produced in the coal mine and the large movement range of the upper strata cause the huge mining additional stress around the stope. The impact load caused by “cantilever beam” fracture of hard roof can induce and strengthen rock burst. Its engineering geological setting encompasses the mining process and surrounding rock conditions of No. 6 Coal Seam in the 2130 coal mine of Xinjiang. Numerical simulations with theoretical analysis and field measurements investigated a proposed new truss combined support scheme for implementation. A comparison was made of the differences in the state parameters of the road under the new and old support conditions. The application of the new combined support technology changed the form of the stress distribution around the road. Apart from the displacements of the two coal sidewalls, the new support system notably reduced the displacement of roof and floor by 67.8% and 83.6%, respectively. After the implementation of the new support scheme, the frequency of the original rock burst in the working face is greatly reduced, the surrounding rock control and field application effects also remained good, and personnel and equipment safety and production plan have a good guarantee.

Based on the geological conditions of 6# coal seam and 8# coal seam in Xieqiao Coal Mine, to determine reasonable entry layout of lower seam in multi-seam mining, alternate internal entry layout, alternate exterior entry layout and overlapping entry layout were put forward and simulated by FLAC3D. Then stress distribution and displacement characteristics of surrounding rock were analyzed in the three ways of entry layout, leading to the conclusion that alternate internal entry layout is a better choice for multi-seam mining, for which makes the entry located in stress reduce zone and reduces the influence of abutment pressure of upper coal seam mining to a certain extent,. And the mining practice of Xieqiao Coal Mine tested the results, which will offer a beneficial reference for entry layout with similar geological conditions in multi-seam mining.

For the problem that the hard roof causes wider end-mining coal pillar, and the roadway is greatly affected by mining, this paper took Shanxi Luning Coal Mine as the engineering background; based on the stress distribution characteristics of the coal pillar, the calculation method of the limit end-mining coal pillar size was given; considering the formation conditions and transmission forms of the advanced abutment stress, a method combining presplitting and deep hole blasting was proposed to weaken the advanced abutment stress. The numerical simulation was used to analyze the stress distribution of coal pillars, which was verified by on-site industrial tests. The results showed that the presplitting can achieve the blocking of stress. The closer it is to the peak of the abutment stress, the better the blocking effect. Deep hole blasting can weaken the source of the advanced abutment stress and reduce the peak of abutment stress. With the combination of the two blasting methods, the end-mining coal pillar size of Luning Coal Mine can be reduced to 60 m. The method combining presplitting and deep hole blasting can effectively reduce the end-mining coal pillar size and reduce the impact of mining on the deformation of the dip roadway.

The higher strength of a hard roof leads to higher coal pressure during coal mining, especially under extra-thick coal seam conditions. This study addresses the hard roof control problem for extra-thick coal seams using the air return roadway 4106 (AR 4106) of the Wenjiapo Coal Mine as a case study. A new surrounding rock control strategy is proposed, which mainly includes 44 m deep-hole pre-splitting blasting for stress releasing and flexible 4-m-long bolt for roof supporting. Based on the new support scheme, field tests were performed. The results show that roadway support failure in traditional scenarios is caused by insufficient bolt length and extensive rotary subsidence of the long cantilever beam of the hard roof. In the new proposed scheme, flexible 4-m-long bolts are shown to effectively restrain the initial expansion deformation of the top coal. The deflection of the rock beam anchored by the roof foundation are improved. Deep-hole pre-splitting blasting effectively reduces the cantilever distance of the “block B” of the voussoir beam structure. The stress environment of the roadway surrounding rock is optimized and anchorage structure damage is inhibited. The results provide insights regarding the safe control of roadway roofs under extra-thick coal seam conditions.

In order to mine the coal seam under super-thick hard roof, improve the utilization rate of resources and prolong the remaining service life of the mine, a case study of the Gaozhuang Coal Mine in the Zaozhuang Mining Area has been performed in this paper. Based on the specific mining geological conditions of ultra-close coal seams (#3up and #3low coal seams), their joint systematic analysis has been performed, with the focus made in the following three aspects: (i) prevention of rock burst under super-thick hard roof, (ii) deformation control of surrounding rock of roadways in the lower coal seam, and (iii) fire prevention in the goaf of working face. Given the strong bursting tendency observed in upper coal seam and lower coal seam, the technology of preventing rock burst under super-thick hard roof was proposed, which involved setting of narrow section coal pillars to protect roadways and interleaving layout of working faces. The specific supporting scheme of surrounding rock of roadways in the #3low1101 working face was determined, and the grouting reinforcement method of local fractured zones through Marithan was further proposed, to ensure the deformation control of surrounding rock of roadways in lower coal seams. The proposed fire prevention technology envisaged goaf grouting and spraying to plug leaks, which reduced the hazard of spontaneous combustion of residual coals in mined ultra-close coal seams. The technical and economic improvements with a direct economic benefit of 5.55 million yuan were achieved by the application of the proposed comprehensive technical support. The research results obtained provide a theoretical guidance and technical support of safe mining strategies of close coal seams in other mining areas.

Quang Ninh underground coal mines are currently in the phase of finishing up the mineralreserves located near the surface. Also, in this phase, a number of coal mines have opened and preparednew mine sites for the extraction of the reserves at greater depth. Several mines have mined at -350 mdepth and are driving opening excavations at -500 m depth below sea level. The mining at greater depthfaces many difficulties, such as a significant increase in support and excavation pressures. The longwallface pressure is mostly manifested in great magnitude that causes support overloaded and jumped andface spall/roof fall. This paper, based on the geological condition of the Seam 11 Ha Lam coal mine,uses the numerical program UDEC for studying the impact of mining depth on stress distribution aroundthe longwall face. The results show that the deeper the mining is, the greater the plastic deformationzone is. The peak front abutment stress moves closer to the coal wall, mainly concentrating on theimmediate roof and top coal. The top coal is greatly broken, and its bearing capacity is decreased. Somesolutions to the stability of roof strata are proposed, and a proper working resistance of support isdetermined. Additionally, the paper suggests that the starting depth for deep mining in Quang Ninhunderground coal mines should be -350 m below sea level.

Gob-side entry retaining by roof cutting (GERRC) employed in a deep inclined thick coal seam (DITCS) can not only increase economic benefits and coal recovery, but also optimize surrounding rock structure. In accordance with the principles of GERRC, the technology of GERRC in DITCS is introduced and a roof-cutting mechanical model of GERRC is proposed to determine the key parameters of the depth and angle of RC. The results show that the greater the RC angle, the easier the caving of the goaf roof, but the length of cantilever beam increases. The depth of RC should account for the dip angle of the coal seam when the angle is above 20°. Increasing the coal seam dip angle could reduce the volume of rock falling of the goaf roof, but increase the filling height of the upper gangue to slide down. According to numerical model analysis of the stress and displacement of surrounding rock at different depths and angles of RC, when the depth of RC increased from 9 m to 13 m, the distance between the stress concentration zone and the coal side is increased. When the angle of RC increased from 0° to 20°, the value of roof separation is decreased. GERRC was applied in a DITCS with 11 m depth and 20° RC angle, and the field-measured data verified the conclusions of the numerical model.

In order to study the influence of advancing speed and stoping time of a coal face on the scale and frequency of rock burst, the energy release characteristics of an overburden fracture under six advancing speeds and four stoping times are studied by theoretical analysis and similar simulation experiments. The distribution characteristics of microseismic events before and after stoppage are compared, and the load/unload response ratio is introduced to analyze the relationship between the synergistic effect of advancing speed and stoping time and the characteristics of microseismic events in coal and rock mass. The mechanism of rock burst induced by the advancing speed and stoping time effect in the working face is studied, and the coordinated regulation and mitigation of advancing speed and stoping time are analyzed and completed. The results show that the effect of advancement speed and stoping time is very important to the energy release of overburden. The energy released by microseismic events during stoping is exponentially related to the advancing speed. The change of advancing speed causes the change of microseismic event characteristics, reflecting the evolution process of overburden structure and its energy. During stoping, the secondary microseismic events disturbed by mining occur frequently, leading to the significant difference of energy released by microseismic events during stoping. After stoping, the microseismic energy is more than four times higher than that during the stop period, and the risk of coal seam impact is high during the stope period. The synergetic change of advancement speed and stoping time changes the cycle of energy accumulation and release. The response ratio of loading and unloading considering the effect of advancement speed and stoping time is established by using the corresponding ratio of loading and unloading, and the impact risk of the coal seam is quantitatively analyzed. Based on the monitoring and analysis of microseismic events, the safety mining index of coordinated control with the energy of a single microseismic event of 180 J is established, and the best advancing speed of the working face is determined to be 4 m/d. According to the corresponding ratio of loading and unloading, the reasonable stoping time of different advancing speeds and the corresponding advancing speed of different stoping times after the resumption of mining are determined, so as to provide a reference for the safe and efficient mining of similar rock burst mines.
