Water disaster is one of the major disasters threatening the safety production of coal mine, which is rank only second to gas disaster. And Meisbluke Coal Mine is seriously affected by water disasters. In order to find out the scope and location of water-bearing areas in Meisbluke Coal Mine. The comprehensive geophysical exploration method combining transient electromagnetic method (TEM) and high-density resistivity method (HDRM) is used to carry out this research. Firstly, the measuring area is determined and the relevant measuring points are arranged, and 73 TEM survey lines and 10 HDRM survey lines were arranged according to the requirements. Then, the principle, data processing method and main parameters of TEM and HDRM are introduced. The TEM detection results show that the thickness of Quaternary inferred by TEM is consistent with the geological conditions revealed by boreholes, and the thickness is about 50-80 m. And the water enrichment of the bedrock is obviously recharged by the Quaternary aquifer. Besides, the water-enriched areas in each elevation are marked and the water inrush runoff channel is deduced based on the 3D scenario inverted by TEM. And the detection results of the water-bearing areas by the two methods are in good agreement with each other, which can confirm and complement each other, and the interpretation of the data is scientific and reasonable with high reliability. Besides, the detection depth of HDRM is larger than that of TEM., (© 2022. The Author(s).)

This paper aims to study the law of pressure behavior and the characteristics of mutual influence in the process of steeply inclined coal seam mining. Based on the geological and engineering conditions of the B8 coal seam in Nanshan coal mine, this paper explores the law of mine pressure behavior in the process of steeply inclined coal seam mining by means of theoretical analysis and FLAC3D numerical simulation. Based on this, this paper also examines the influence of the interaction range between coal seams, the reasonable setting size of the section coal pillar, and the mining distance of the working face on the return air roadway. The results suggest as follows: (1) With an increase in the coal seam dip angle, the difference in the abutment pressure plastic zone between upper and lower coal pillars increases, and when mining in steeply inclined coal seams, the stress concentration in the lower and upper part of the working face deviates to the roof and floor respectively, which is obviously different from that of gently inclined coal seams. (2) The vertical stress above the section coal pillar changes in three stages with an increase in the width of the coal pillar, and the width of the coal pillar in the second stage can be taken as the reasonable size of the width of the coal pillar. The numerical simulation results are consistent with the theoretical calculation results, which indicate the high reliability of this method in determining the reasonable coal pillar size. (3) With an increase in the mining distance in steeply inclined coal seams, the maximum pressure around the working face and above the return air roadway has gone through three stages. When the distance between the working face and the adjacent return air roadway is close, the pressure above the return air roadway increases sharply, and disturbance is stronger.

In order to improve the efficiency of gas extraction in coal mines, a data-driven fine-management and control method for gas extraction is proposed. Firstly, the accurate prediction of coal seam thickness and gas content was used to evaluate the gas reserves. Based on the time relationship between mining activities and gas extraction, the calculation model of borehole distance in different extraction units is established, and the differential borehole design is realized. Then, a drilling video-surveillance system and drilling trajectory measurement device are used to control the drilling process and the construction effect. Finally, the model of extraction data-correction and the identification of failed boreholes is established, then the failed boreholes are repaired. The technology method provided in the paper has realized the fine control of gas-extraction borehole design, construction, measurement, and repair, and formed a more scientific gas-extraction borehole control technology system, which provides new thought for efficient gas extraction.

For deep coal mines, geological disturbances or mining activities can cause damage to coal and rock masses, easily inducing dynamic disasters such as rock bursts or coal and gas outbursts, which seriously threaten the safety production of coal mine. In this paper, first, the Liyazhuang Coal Mine introduced the SOS MS (Sensor Observation Service Microseismic) monitoring system from the Polish Research Institute and verified the accuracy of its positioning. Then, to study the characteristics of MS signals induced by different mining activities, based on the field monitoring results, the waveform and frequency spectrum characteristics of MS signals at different energy levels induced by different mining activities are analyzed, and the energy levels of MS signals caused by different mining activities are classified. Studies have shown that there are large differences in the waveform and spectral characteristics of MS signals at different energy levels. High-level energy seismic signals are characterized by large amplitudes, low frequencies, relatively concentrated distribution, long vibration duration, and slow attenuation. In addition, the relationship between mining activities and MS events is also statistically analyzed based on the spatial and temporal distribution of MS events with the advancement of working face, and the results show that the increase of vibration frequency and energy can be precursor information for roof pressure. With the advance of the working face, the MS energy has the characteristic of periodic distribution, which is consistent with the periodic weighting revealed by the working resistance of the support. This study provides a reference for further revealing the energy release mechanism of rock burst. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Coal seam permeability is one of the key factors influencing the gas extraction efficiency, which is of great significance to reduce coal and gas dynamic disasters in gassy coal mines. Hydraulic slotting technique is an effective method to stimulate the coal reservoir, but the selection of slotting key parameters has great impact on gas extraction efficiency. For this reason, the hydraulic slotting model was established by using FLAC3D software to analyze the stress distribution before and after slotting. Then, the influence of borehole diameter, slotting width, and slotting length on coal seam stress relief is also discussed. The results show that the slotting width has a great influence on the stress relief of the coal seam, while the borehole diameter and slotting length have no obvious influence on that. Based on the results of numerical simulation, field tests were carried out in Sangshuping NO.2 coal mine. The results show that the coal seam stress can be fully released, resulting in the improvement of coal seam permeability. The gas extraction efficiency can be highly enhanced by hydraulic slotting. This research achievement provides the guidance basis for high-stress water jet slotting technology with adaptive selection of slotting parameters in different geological conditions.
