The invention provides a deep well small
coal pillar gob-side entry retaining method based on roof lower key layer roof-breaking pressure relief, and relates to the technical field of
coal mining. Ventilation and support in deep well gob-side entry retaining are improved. The deep well small
coal pillar gob-side entry retaining method comprises the steps that roof geological conditions are determined, blasting parameters are determined according to the roof geological conditions, the roof-breaking pressure relief effects of lower key
layers with different thicknesses are numerically simulated,and roof-breaking parameters of a roadway are determined; then excavating blast is conducted in the test roadway, and a displacement monitoring
station, an anchor rod and an anchor cable
stress monitoring station are arranged on surrounding rock in the roadway; and the supporting parameters are corrected, excavating blast is conducted in the gob-side entry retaining roadway, and supporting is conducted according to the corrected supporting parameters. According to the method, blasting is conducted on the side, deviating from
solid coal, of a coal seam roof, stress transmission of the key layer is
cut off at the lower key layer of the pre-split coal seam roof, thus
high stress acting on small coal pillars and gob-side entry retaining is transferred, therefore the roadway environment is improved, and roadway maintenance is facilitated.
