Underground modes of access include drift, slope, and shaft mining, and actual mining methods include longwall and room and pillar mining. Drift mines enter horizontally into the side of a hill and mine the coal within the hill. Slope mines usually begin in a valley bottom, and a tunnel slopes down to the coal to be mined.

Underground Mining. Room and pillar and longwall are two dominant methods that account for the vast majority of underground coal mining.. Room And Pillar Mining. In this mining strategy, seams of the coal are mined partially, leaving large pillars of coal intact in a bid to support the overlying layers of rock.
A coal mine is currently mining No. 2–2 coal seam. The 22109 longwall working face uses the top coal-caving method with the mining height of 5.8 m. The average top coal-caving height is 6 m. The longwall panel length is 6004 m. The ventilation pattern that the longwall working uses is a two-in-two-return "U" type.

Coal mining in Nova Scotia is confined mainly to the Sydney coal field on Cape Breton Island. Three mines - No. 26, Lingan and Prince - are working and all employ the longwall system of extraction. Environmental implications of elements associated with pyrite concentrates from coal in the Sydney Coalfield (Upper Carboniferous), Nova Scotia, …
In 2015, 40 longwall mines provided nearly 60% of the US coal production from underground mining methods. This represents a substantial yet gradual increase from just under 50% over the last 5 years. As a result of this increased production share, the percentage of ground-fall-related fatalities in longwall mines has also increased when …
Hence this method is termed the longwall method. In simple words, longwall mining is a method of underground mining, in which coal is extracted from 60m to 200m long faces, moving continuously in one direction over large distances, leaving behind the goaf. The goaf is packed or allowed to cave. Longwall Mining is currently the main …
Coal production from the 36 longwall faces represented 23.2% of the 597 million tons of coal produced in the U.S. last year. Last year, two longwall mines ceased production and one new mine will start …
San Juan was a longwall mine, meaning that its coal was extracted by a colossal shearing machine that worked back and forth across an exposed panel of coal, like a deli slicer shaving off wedges ...
Large scale underground mining of coal resources in China using longwall mining has resulted in ecological and environment problems, including surface subsidence that is considered serious due to competing interests of prime agricultural lands, food security, and regional economic development. The subsided lands must be rehabilitated …
Longwall mining. navigation search. Longwall mining is a form of underground coal mining where a long wall of coal is mined in a single slice (typically 1-2 m thick). The longwall "panel" (the block of coal that is being mined) is typically 3-4 km long and 250-400 m wide. Longwall mining produced 176 million tons of coal in 2007, about 15 ...
The longwall coal mining was completed in 2010 and the mined-out panels have reached supercritical mining. The surface subsidence factor, q = 0.7, is determined by processing the results of field measurements.
