Abstract
- The article reports on the implementation of a geologic program for stability improvement and support for deep longwall gateroads at Energy West Mining Co.'s (EWMC) Deer Creek Mine operations in Huntington, Utah. The program involves in-mine and surface exploration drilling, rock mechanics testing, and measurements of structural and depositional condition changes. It notes that the appropriate equipment to wear during the operation is dictated by administrative controls or rules.
