Fundamentals of 3D modelling and resource estimation in coal mining

The prerequisite of maintaining an efficient and safe mining operation is the proper design of a mine by considering all aspects. The first step in a coal mine design is a realistic geometrical modelling of the coal seam(s). The structural features such as faults and folding must be reliably implemented in 3D seam models. Upon having a consistent seam model, the attributes such as calorific val...

A New Approach of Controlling Medium Consumption with Applications in Coal Mining Industry

In order to reduce the medium consumption of dense-medium coal separation, trace back the root causes and key factors of high medium consumption, and provide an efficient solution, the limitation of the existing research is examined and the application of Lean Six Sigma to the medium consumption reduction is studied. By defining the waste and defection in the control of medium consumption and a...
