Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of mine exploitation, and particularly relates to a downward drift filling mining method with reserved top space. BACKGROUND

[0002] The filling mining method refers to a mining method in which filling materials are filled into the mined-out area while the mining, transportation and other operations are carried out. The purpose of filling is to support the two sides of the mined-out area and to create a stable floor for the upper layer mining. It is suitable for the deposits with unstable ore and surrounding rock, which are not allowed to have a large exposed surface; the deposits whose surface needs to be protected; the deposits with rare noble metals or high-grade ores; the deposits with spontaneous combustion; the deposits with complex occurrence conditions, etc. Since the filling mining method can maximize the recovery of mineral resources and protect the underground and surface environment, especially in recent years, with the continuous progress of filling materials, filling technology, pipeline transportation equipment and technology, the filling mining method has been widely applied in non-ferrous metal mines and precious metal mines. With the continuous reduction of filling cost and the continuous rise of mineral product price, the filling method has an irreplaceable advantage, and the application proportion in mines such as coal mines and iron mines which are not suitable for filling method in the traditional sense is also increasing.

[0003] Among the many filling mining methods, the downward drift filling mining method is a widely used mining method for the mining of ore bodies with extremely broken ore and high economic value in China. This method is a mining method that sequentially mines and fills each layer from bottom to top under the protection of the artificial false roof in the form of roadway access. The downward drift filling mining method is mainly suitable for ore bodies with very unstable ore and surrounding rock and high-grade ore with high economic value. The advantage of this method is that the working place roof is an artificial false roof, which is more safe and reliable, and the ore loss rate and ore dilution rate are low. However, the existing downward drift filling mining method also has the following deficiencies:

[0004] (1) Low mining efficiency and high mining cost. At present, the roadway excavation method is used for blasting and mining in the access, which has great difficulty in blasting, and the once-excavated footage is low, so the mining efficiency is low, which restricts the mining production capacity. At the same time, a large number of blast holes need to be constructed for excavation and blasting, which consumes a lot of labor and explosive materials, and the mining cost is high.

[0005] (2) The blasting of the stope access seriously damages the roof filling body, and the risk of roof filling body collapse is high. The blasting shock wave of the access excavation will cause disturbance and damage to the roof filling body, leading to a decrease in the stability of the roof filling body. In addition, the influence of the quality fluctuation of the filling body leads to an increase in the risk of roof filling body collapse, which threatens the safety of personnel and equipment.
