Longwall mining is a form of underground coal mining where a long wall of coal is mined in a single slice (typically 0.6–1.0 m (2 ft 0 in–3 ft 3 in) thick). The longwall panel (the block of coal that is being mined) is typically 3–4 km (1.9–2.5 mi) long and 250–400 m (820–1,310 ft) wide.
Underground mining involves opening one or more portals or shafts into the earth that follow or intercept coal seams that are too deep for surface mining methods. Two main methods of underground mining are practiced in Pennsylvania: Room-and-Pillar: Generally used for seams that are relatively flat or gently dipping.
The Technical Study Panel on the Utilization of Belt Air and the Composition and Fire Retardant Properties of Belt Materials in Underground Coal Mining was created under Section 11 of the Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006 (MINER Act)(Public Law 109-236), and was chartered under the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA).
Panel - A coal mining block that generally comprises one operating unit. Panic bar - A switch, in the shape of a bar, used to cut off power at the machine in case of an emergency. Parting - (1) A small joint in coal or rock; (2) a layer of rock in a coal seam; (3) a side track or turnout in a haulage road.
western coal mines because they provide better ground stability than the three-entry systems previously used.2 In longwall mines, two sets of entries called "panel entries" (or "gate entries"), one on each side of the panel of coal to be mined, are driven from the main mine entries to the end of the panel. They are then connected at the back of the

Development in most mines is carried out by a number of separate development "units" each consisting of a full set of equipment (coal cutting machine, face transport equipment for coal and materials, roof support equipment and ventilation equipment) usually manned by more or less fixed crews on each shift. It is common for several such units to ...
Feb 27, 2016 · 1. SIZE OF THE PANEL The main consideration in deciding the size of the panel is the incubation period of the coal seam. The size is so fixed that the entire panel can be extracted within the incubation period without the occurrence of spontaneous fire. The period in Indian coalfields generally varies between 6 to 12 months.

COAL MINING METHODS Underground coal mining methods are classified according to the method of ground control (an excellent description of all methods is provided in M. Cassidy, Ed., Elements of Practical Coal Mining, New York: American Institute of Mining Engineers, 1973) as either room and pillar or longwall (shortwall is considered a ...
Foidel Creek Mine, an underground coal mine near Oak Creek, CO, to evaluate the stability of underground working conditions as a longwall advanced through a series of backfilled cross-panel entries. Instruments installed in the cross-panel entry pillars, backfill, longwall panel, and adjacent headgate entry were continuously
Before idling the Mine, Kameron was in the Development Phase of the operation where two coal sections were actively developing the Mine’s main underground infrastructure and the first production panel to allow for the long-term and highly active Production Phase, which would incorporate retreat mining.

Underground Mining Room and Pillar mining, the most common type of underground coal mining, coal seams are mined by a "continuous miner" that cuts a network of "rooms" into the seam. As the rooms are cut, the continuous miner simultaneously loads the coal onto a shuttle or ram car where it will eventually be placed on a conveyor belt that will ...
