Coal Policy Engagement Survey. We want to understand what you think about the management of Alberta''s coal resources. This is an initial survey that will help inform the Coal Policy Committee''s plans for further engagement with Albertans. Near the end of the survey, you will have the opportunity to tell the committee if there is additional ...
the mining face. The same level of success could, however, not be achieved on coal mines. At present most South African coal operations use a combination of vertical drilling, aeromagnetic surveying and in-seam drilling techniques to detect and identify the presence of dykes ahead of the mining face with a relative high degree of accuracy

to the role of the coal mine surveyor but also surveying in general. The Institute of Mine Surveyors of South Africa (IMSSA, 2005) adopted the definition of the International Society of Mine Surveying (ISM), which reads as follows: ''…[Mine surveying is a]‚ branch of mining science and technology which includes all measurements, calculations
A. Abutment - In coal mining, (1) the weight of the rocks above a narrow roadway is transferred to the solid coal along the sides, which act as abutments of the arch of strata spanning the roadway; and (2) the weight of the rocks over a longwall face is transferred to the front abutment, that is, the solid coal ahead of the face and the back abutment, that is, the settled packs behind the face.

Underground Surveying or Mine Surveying. One of the first differences a new surveyor underground notices is the fact that all the survey points are overhead. Because of the mud and the constant traffic of mining equipment, it is not practical to set points in the bottom of the seam. Surveys are generally run on the centreline of the mine …
· Drilling Methods Used in Coal Mines. Geotechnical core sample after logging. For coal deposits, like most other minerals, drilling is a key to identifying in detail the grade and size of the resource, both prior to mine development, and during operations. Mining operations employ a variety of drilling methods based on the requirements of the ...
''Colorado School of Mines, Golden, Colorado 80401 cal. Past coal mining practice left much coal in the ground as pillars that are difficult to recover.

Early warnings allow mine owners to enact contingency plans to counteract the observed changes in parameters. Real-time monitoring systems allow engineers to access data immediately to allow for rapid decision making. Also, less effort spent on collecting data means more time spent on effectively interpreting and using the data collected.
Coal production, number of mines, employment, and productivity are based on the U.S. Department of Labor''s Mine Safety and Health Administration''s orm 7000F -2, Quarterly Mine Employment and Coal Production Report. Productive capacity, recoverable reserves, and prices are based on EIA''s Form EIA-7A, Annual Survey of Coal Production and Preparation.
Mine Surveyor has been developed to provide valuable information to students about the mine surveying profession. It is our intention to address the shortage of mine surveyors in Australia and encourage the involvement of school leavers and university students in the profession.

· In Alabama, where my coal mining experience has been, the seams are fairly level and range in thickness from around 2'' to as much as 15''. If the coal seam or strata is thick enough to stand on, it is usually called high coal; if not, it is called low coal. In the low coal mines, coal is moved by low profile conveyor belts. In transportation areas, the roof is blasted higher than the seam, and ...

Most underground coal mines in India employ an exhaust (i.e. negative pressure) ventilation system. This project deals with the pressure and air quantity survey of an underground coal mine ventilation system at Nandira colliery, Talcher. The survey work has been carried out with the help of latest instruments at nearly forty stations.
