Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of study is to develop methods for damage prevention and production safety.

Design/methodology/approach

In this study, water aquifers in various districts of the Merlin Temple coal-mining area number 3-1 were examined using a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. Using FLAC-3D software, a three-dimensional numerical model based on the geological conditions of the first mining area was built to produce a numerical simulation of the fissure-zone and caving development in the area.

Findings

The simulation results, together with the traditional empirical formula, were used to produce a contour map of the distribution of these characteristics. This enabled areas to be classified according to various safety factors.

Originality/value

On the basis of the water richness in the area, coal-roof aquifers and the safety factors of different districts, as well as comprehensive coal-roof water-flow conditions and their associated dangers could be better understood.

Abstract

The coal-bearing strata of Longdong mine field in Xingtai is the Carboniferous-Permian. The No.8 coal seam is located in the Taiyuan formation and is the main minable coal-bed. The coal is mainly gas-fat coal accompanied with coking coal, lean coal and anthracite. The results of the macroanalysis and maceral quantitative analysis on the main minable coal-bed show that the degree of coal metamorphism takes the old town as the center and is distributed concentrically outward and the anthracite and lean coal are distributed nearby the old town, and the coal gradually becomes coking coal, gas-fat coal and gas coal further outwards. The degree of coal metamorphism was affected by regional metamorphism, and the coal seams which are close to the old town stack the regional magmatic thermal metamorphism. The conclusions of the research offer a scientific foundation to exploit the coal resource in this area?
