Probabilistic Approach to Coal Pillar Design

The stress supported by a pillar in a room-and-pillar mine can be assumed to be a function of the tributary area and the pillar area, shown in Figure 3, as well as the overburden stress. It is assumed that each pillar supports the volume of overburden in the column above the tributary area of that pillar.

Pillar Extraction

Pillar extraction, (also referred to as retreat mining; pillar recovery; stooping; pillar robbing; and bord and pillar second workings) is the practice of forming a series of pillars and then partially or totally extracting some or all of the pillars, usually with mining operations retreating out of a panel. There are a number of basic pillar extraction …

The trial operation of the room and pillar method has been implemented at the shaft protective pillar of CSM coal mine, Czech Republic. Mining depth of the room and pillar trial ranged from 700 to 900 metres, being perhaps the deepest room and pillar coal mining in the world.

Room and Pillar Mining Method | PPT

4. Characteristic of R & P It is the most common supported pillar method, designed and used primarily for mining flat-lying seams, or tabular orebodies, or gently dipping bedded ore deposits of limited thickness (like coal, oil shale, limestone, phosphate, salt, trona, potash, and bedded uranium ores,). Room and pillar methods are well …

Room-and-Pillar Mining Method | SpringerLink

Room-and-pillar mining is an open stope mining method that uses surrounding rocks and regular continuous pillars or rib pillars to maintain stope stability in the process of room stoping. The long-axis direction of the stoping room in the mining system can be arranged along the strike or dip, and the rooms and pillars are arranged …

Room & Pillar Method | RS3

Underground mining of unexploited coal reserves is on the rise in Greece, due to its heavy dependency on lignite resources for electricity. The room and pillar approach for underground mining is a conventional method that follows material extractions by creating horizontal arrays of rooms while the pillars remain untouched to support the …

Numerical Modeling of Room-and-Pillar Coal Mine Ground …

The interaction between the small scale (pillar stress-strain) and the large scale (ground response curve) is studied. Further analysis between these two length scales is conducted to estimate the stress on pillars in a room-and-pillar coal mine. These studies are performed in FLAC3D by implementing a two-scale, two-step approach.
