U.S. Mining Industry Energy Bandwidth Study

average energy consumption of key equipment used in coal, metals, and mineral mining. In absence of energy data on many mined commodities in the U.S., the E&E Profile benchmarks energy consumption for eight mined commodities, collectively responsible for approximately 78% of the energy used in the U.S. mining industry.

Some Corrosion and Metallurgy Issues in Coal Mines

 — Environmental cracking (EC) and corrosion fatigue are other common failure mechanisms in coal mines. Failure of rock bolts in mines, especially in coal mines, has attracted the greatest attention, primarily due to the sudden and catastrophic nature of EC. Figure 3 shows examples of typical EC field failures of rock bolts from coal mines.

Making Underground Equipment Moves Easier

 — Moving underground coal mining equipment from one section to another can be time consuming and costly. Traditionally, moving a large electrically powered piece of equipment, such as a continuous miner, feeder-breaker or a roofbolter, required the power center to move along with the equipment. ... The typical data/control harness includes …

Beginner's Guide to Coal Mining

 — Room-and-pillar mines allow for continuous mining. This process uses robotic equipment to move vast amounts of coal quickly. Longwall mining mines a single coal seam in one single tunnel, rather than the many rooms used in the room-and-pillar technique. Contour mining is similar to longwall mining, but it follows the contour of a seam.
