·Methane drainage from coal seams is a complex process Quantification of the geological and microstructural characteristics of the coal matrix is of utmost importance to assess the migration of methane for the success of methane drainage from coal seams This research makes a comprehensive assessment of the methane drainage potential of two gassy coal
Coal mining can be performed in two different ways as surface mining or underground mining Underground mining is selected as a coal extraction method if surface mining is not preferable technically or economically However underground mining has become more crucial for many different minerals especially coal since there is a decrease in
·Risk assessment in underground coal mines has been a topic of great interest for a long time with the analysis of risks due to various physical hazards 31 Rockfall risks can be divided into two types according to the location where the damage occurred the intense working areas near the active faces and the remainder of the mine including travelways declines and
·The presence of multiple coal seams imposes major challenges of safety issues during their extraction by underground mining Sheorey et al 1987 Campoli et al 1995 Alejano et al 1999 Sheorey et al 2000 Wiles 2002 Poulsen 2010 Yang 2010 In India the two coal seams are called contiguous if the thickness of the parting
Underground coal mining commenced in British India by adopting labour intensive operations lease areas in those days were small and hardly any mechanization was introduced for underground coal mining Coal seams were mostly developed in honeycomb fashion in the past development of coal seams like a graph paper driving parallel and

·Peabody Coal Company s Dugger strip mine and Bethlehem s Mine No 108 were awarded Sentinels of Safety trophies in 1978 for being the safest surface and underground coal mines in the country that
When two seams are above one another the workings in one tend to affect the working in another In India coal seams that are near to one another such that the parting thickness between them is below 9 m are called contiguous Coal mine regulation number 104 of Coal Mine Regulations 1957 apply to such seams
·The symbiosis disasters of gas and coal self heating even spontaneous combustion may occur in a new excavation coal lane a broken coal seam or top coal induced by mining gob side entry of coal seam and a gas extraction process in underground coal seams In this paper an underground gob side coal entry which is prone to coupled

·Ukraine hosts by far the biggest mining industry in terms of employment with 47 mines and more than 55 000 jobs but Serbia produces almost 50% more coal in just two large open pit mines
·Underground coal mining under Modi In a nutshell coal and the entire energy vertical was in a precarious condition when Modi came to power Over the last decade the government steadied the ship and gave it a new direction by ending the nationalization Two coal seams are generally available closer to the ground Together these two
·A coal seam is a dark brown or black banded deposit of coal that is visible within layers of rock These seams are located underground and can be mined using either deep mining or strip mining techniques depending on their proximity to the surface These seams undergo normal coal formation and serve as a conventional coal reserves of coal are
·Opencast coal mining recovers a greater proportion of the coal deposit than underground methods as more of the coal seams in the strata may be exploited This equipment can include the following Draglines which operate by removing the overburden power shovels large trucks in which transport overburden and coal bucket wheel excavators and
These claims were positively verified for two separate coal seams The analytical works were supported by the extensive information from the model of geological deposits of the Lublin Coal Basin which is in possession of the Department of Mineral Resources Acquisition at the Mineral and Energy Economy Research Institute of the Polish Academy
