The Opencast Mining of Ironstone and Coal

THE OPENCAST MINING OF IRONSTONE AND COAL W. DAVID EVANS OPENCAST mining, or large-scale quarrying, of bedded minerals has been carried out in this country for over one hundred years. As distinct from underground mining it involves the removal of superincumbent strata, or overburden, which are discharged, or dumped, clear of the mineral exposed.

Blast-Casting Mechanism and Parameter Optimization of a ...

Specifically speaking, once the blast-casting technique is applied in opencast coal mines for overburden removal, 30–65% of the materials can be directly thrown into the mined-out area without any need for further handling (Figure 1); thus, it will reduce the stripping cost by more than 30% [1, 2]. As a matter of fact, blast-casting is the ...

weathered overburden and low-wall spoil piles. Geological and geotechnical field investigations were conducted at two operating opencast coal mines - New Vaal Colliery and Wonderwater Strip Mine. The two mines are situated in differing geological and geotechnical environments, yet the controls on highwall stability are the same at both sites.

STUDY OF STABILITY OF OVERBURDEN DUMPS MIXED …

According to MoEF guidelines, any mine situated within 50 km from a power plant must use at least 25% flyash as its backfill material. In this project the stability of overburden dumps mixed with fly ash at KTK opencast mine of SCCL was studied. Samples of overburden and fly ash were collected from KTK mine and APGENCO, Chelpur respectively.

Opencast lignite mines Waste management. When a lignite mine is re-opened, the topsoil is first removed and stored separately for later recultivation. Then the overburden layers lying on the coal seam, which usually consist of quaternary and tertiary layers in lignite mining, are cleared and stored on dump.When re-opening the dump is inevitably outside the open pit and is therefore …

for more than 90% of the total coal produced in India. In opencast mining, first overburden (soil and rock lying above the coal seam) is removed to access the coal seam. Once the coal seam is exposed, it is mined out and overburden is backfilled in the mined-out area. The excess overburden is stacked near pit boundaries as external dumps.

Issues with open cast mines | Current Affairs

Opencast mining operations involve the removal of huge quantities of overburden, dumping, and backfilling of the excavated area; Overburden removal refers to the removal of top-soil to expose the coal seams making them ready for mining. Tailings are a by-product of mining. After ore is processed the resultant waste stream is termed "tailings".
