2 Indian Coal Background India is the 3 rd largest coal producer in the World (530mt/annum). India has the 4 th largest coal reserves in the World (approx. 277bt). 2-3bt are estimated to exist as pillars in old mining districts. Almost 90% of India s coal production is accounted for by surface operations. Underground mining is now being expanded due ever increasing environmental restrictions on near surface deposits. India has the 2 nd largest population in the World after China with 1.2 billion. It is expected to increase its current annual consumption of coal from 770mt to 1.5bt/annum by 2030 (with 400mt/annum imported). This will require India to at least double its annual production in the next 20 years. To meet this projected demand, India is looking to highly mechanised underground mining. November 14,
3 Golder in India Rock Mechanics Technology (RMT - now Golder) was formed following the privatisation of the Rock Mechanics Department of British Coal in 1994 and were instrumental in the successful introduction of rockbolting in to the UK coal mining industry, to replace standing steel support. (It should be noted that at the time, this method of support was outside of the current legislation in the UK and was closely supervised by the UK Mines Inspectorate). India s underground coal mines have been worked mainly by unmechanised room and pillar methods and has large coal reserves estimated at 2-3 billion tonnes left as pillars at existing mines. Coal Indian recognised that these untapped reserves could potentially be extracted using modern methods with remote controlled continuous miners, playing a significant role in increasing production in the near future. November 14,
4 Golder Projects in India Golder currently have 5 projects with JMS (Joy Machinery). Plus 2 similar projects with Tractor India (Caterpillar Equipment). Two of the World s largest equipment suppliers. Many more projects in the pipeline. These projects were originally with Joy Mining and Caterpillar equipment. Joy and Caterpillar wanted to reduce their risk and supply equipment only. Both Joy and Caterpillar have transferred their contract mining services to JMSL and Tractor India Private Limited respectively. November 14,

6 Design Approach Use best practice and proven experience for initial design. Measure to confirm that expected behaviour is taking place to confirm design assumptions: Behaviour of roof, ribs, floor and pillars. Progress in stages - prove each stage before changing. Understand roof failure mechanisms. Use an effective rockbolt system. Design by measurement. Monitor the system. Use real data to validate computer models. November 14,

12 DESIGN BY MEASUREMENT FOR ROCK BOLT SUPPORT November 14,
13 Design by Measurement for Support Falls of ground still cause around one third of all underground coal mining fatalities. A lack of formal systematic design procedures in mining ground control has been highlighted as an industry failing. In deeper mines with relatively weak rocks, such as those typically found in coal mines, failure is predominantly stress driven. Design methods for these conditions need to concentrate on rock mass behaviour under the imposed stresses and the ability of installed reinforcement to resist active rock shear. Few rock bolt support patterns for coal mines are designed in any formal way, most adapt to the encountered conditions. November 14,
14 Design by Measurement for Support Unfortunately, in the early stages of a mining project, only limited data may be available on rock engineering properties, thus it falls to the experience of the designer to specify the initial design. Monitoring rock bolt performance and entry deformation after installation to confirm/optimise design is key to the application of design by measurement. Safety monitoring is also an important part of the process, providing routine monitoring at regular intervals to identify areas outside of the norm for enhanced ground control safety. This can be achieved with visual telltales to target additional remedial support where it is required. November 14,

44 Summary The successful introduction of mechanised room and pillar working in India coalmines would not have been possible without the simultaneous introduction by Golder of advanced technology rock bolting; High capacity support systems; Design based on measurement; Training; and Technology transfer. The wider application of design by measurement approach has the potential to significantly improve ground control safety in coal and other soft rock mines (evaporites). The routine safety monitoring system is also an important element of the design by measurement process. In the future, it is anticipated that the surface monitoring of ground control safety through remote monitoring of roof displacement will be commonplace. November 14,
