Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underground bauxite mining, and in particular relates to a bauxite mining method without leaving a mine roof. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the development and utilization of underground bauxite resources is still in its infancy. Mining methods primarily rely on room-and-pillar methods, relying on drilling and blasting to achieve ore drop. The stope roof and surrounding rock are stabilized by leaving numerous point and intermediate pillars and a protective roof. The direct roof of bauxite ore is mostly composed of soft rock, such as claystone. Claystone is weak and fragmented, has low compressive and shear strength, and is unstable. It weathers rapidly when exposed to air, making it highly susceptible to roof collapse. Therefore, in bauxite mining engineering practice, a suitable thickness of bauxite ore is typically reserved as a protective roof to prevent weathering and collapse of the direct claystone roof. This protective roof prevents direct contact with the air, thereby preventing weathering and acting as a stable roof, protecting the stope space and ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment working within it. However, the extensive use of protective roofs results in wasted bauxite, low resource utilization, and an excessively high proportion of protective roofs significantly reduces bauxite recovery rates. Furthermore, existing mining methods require the installation of anchor bolts and mesh on top of the remaining retaining roof, increasing the workload and construction time, impacting mining efficiency, and requiring regular inspection and maintenance, which in turn increases costs. Therefore, addressing the resource waste caused by the extensive use of retaining roofs, improving bauxite recovery rates, and ensuring safety during mining are crucial. Summary of the Invention

9. The bauxite mining method according to claim 8, characterized in that: In step h of the fifth step, when the length of the turnover beam cannot support the mining space, the telescopic beam is gradually extended, and the turnover beam and / or the telescopic beam are supported by a single hydraulic support.

10. The bauxite mining method according to claim 6, characterized in that: The recovery steps of the row hydraulic supports are as follows: a. Contract and retract the single hydraulic prop and retract the telescopic beam at the same time; b. The front row of hydraulic supports is equipped with a rotatable front beam at the front end of the odd-row top beam and the even-row top beam. The rotation angle of the front beam is controlled by a hydraulic cylinder. The recovery steps of the hydraulic supports located within the full mining column are as follows: ① Raise the front beam so that the angle between it and the extension lines of the odd-row top beam and the even-row top beam is α; ② Lift all odd-row hydraulic supports to remove the odd-row top beams from their original supporting state; ③ The hydraulic propulsion cylinder extends, driving the odd-row hydraulic struts, odd-row top beams and odd-row support beams that have no supporting function to move backward by one step; ④Then lower the odd-row hydraulic struts. The odd-row hydraulic struts’ column feet touch the ground and the odd-row top beams begin to play a supporting role. ⑤ Lift all the even-row hydraulic supports to remove the even-row top beams from their original supporting state; ⑥ The hydraulic propulsion cylinder contracts, driving the even-row hydraulic struts, even-row top beams and even-row support beams that have no supporting function to move backward by one step; ⑦ Then lower the even-row hydraulic props. After the even-row hydraulic prop foot touches the ground, the even-row top beams and even-row support beams begin to play a supporting role. ⑧ Repeat steps ②-⑦ until the row of hydraulic supports in all the columns are retracted, and the front cantilever beam is retracted so that it is in close contact with the bottom surface of the odd-row top beam and the even-row top beam.
