Subsidence is one of the major problems which is faced over an old abandoned mine. Presently there are limited means or methods which can predict subsidence over an old abandoned coal mine at a shallow depth efficiently and the precautionary methods that should be taken in these situations. This research paper will cover the possible causes which can lead to subsidence above an old abandoned board and pillar coal mines at a shallow depth. The research includes the calculation of the factor of safety for pillars and analysis of <em>FoS</em> using ANSYS and Monte Carlo Simulations for ascertaining subsidence. An old abandoned coal mine of South Eastern Coalfields Ltd. (SECL, a subsidiary of Coal India Limited), was considered for the study of coal pillar fatigue and eventual crushing of pillars over a long duration of time, simulation analysis of stress and strength of coal pillars over a long period, change in behavior of factor of safety as the dimension of the pillars changes.</p> </span>","PeriodicalId":16358,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mining Science","volume":"287 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140114984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, InSAR is used to obtain the time series information of surface deformation in goaf. Then, a genetic algorithm-based parameter inversion model is constructed to invert the subsidence parameters such as subsidence coefficient and influence radius. After that, a dynamic prediction function is established to obtain the complete surface subsidence pattern and dynamic change trend of the mining area. Taking a goaf in Shanxi Province as the experimental object, Sentinel-1A(S-1A) image as the data source, combined with PIM and InSAR data, the parameter inversion model is used to successfully obtain the dynamic change process of mining subsidence parameters. The results show that the dynamic prediction function can achieve a certain effect on surface prediction in insufficient mining, and the parameter inversion model based on genetic algorithm has a high inversion accuracy, which provides a basis for surface prediction in insufficient mining.</p>","PeriodicalId":16358,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mining Science","volume":"44 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138507493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The studies aimed to correlate the plasmachemical treatment parameters with the physicochemical and process properties of sulfide minerals. Using the Hammet indicator method, it is found that plasma treatment strengthens acceptor properties and weakens electron donor properties of pyrite surface, as well as weakens acceptor properties of arsenopyrite. Adsorptive properties of pyrite relative to the electron-donor butyl xanthate grow, and, as a consequence, flotation activity of the mineral improves. In case of arsenopyrite, the adsorptive properties and flotation activity decrease. It is shown that the low-temperature plasma pretreatment of minerals reduces arsenic yield in flotation froth by 10–11% at the reduced arsenic content of concentrate by 0.71–0.78%.</p>","PeriodicalId":16358,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mining Science","volume":"44 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138507496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
