Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of mining technology, and in particular to a method for mining the lower wing ore body in a high trench. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the mining of thick, dipping to steeply dipping ore bodies and thick, horizontal to gently dipping ore bodies in metal mines, the primary method is large-diameter deep-hole stage open-cut mining. After the main ore body and hanging wall flank ore bodies are mined, how to economically and efficiently mine the remaining footwall flank ore bodies is a major challenge faced by most mines. Because footwall flank ore bodies vary in shape, it is even more difficult to economically and efficiently mine non-flat, economically valuable footwall flank ore bodies using existing engineering without adding sublevel or secondary subgrade engineering.
[0003] In summary, existing conventional mining techniques cannot achieve economical and efficient mining of irregular footwall wing ore bodies without the addition of sub-sections or secondary intermediate sections.
[0004] Therefore, developing a method for mining the lower flank ore body in a high trench is of great significance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The objective of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a method for mining the footwall flank ore body in high trenches. This method utilizes existing engineering techniques to mine this type of footwall flank ore body, making it economical and efficient.
[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] The specific technological steps and conditions for mining the lower flank orebody in Gaoqiangou are as follows:
[0008] A. Construct external connecting tunnels from the upper and lower hanging wall external transport tunnels to reach the upper and lower hanging wall of the ore body;
[0009] B. Construct a bottom-pull and ore-receiving roadway along the length of the mining area at the center of the bottom of the mining area, and construct ore loading routes in the same direction from the bottom-pull and ore-receiving roadway to both sides of the mining area.
[0010] C. Construct a large-diameter deep-hole drilling connecting roadway along the length of the mining area at the center of the top of the mining area, and construct a certain number of large-hole drilling roadways from the drilling connecting roadway to both sides of the mining area to reach the boundary of the mining area.
[0011] D. Drill large-diameter deep holes from the rock-drilling connecting roadway at the top of the stope to the bottom-pulling and receiving roadway at the bottom of the stope. Using the bottom-pulling and receiving roadway as the free face, charge and blast all large-diameter deep holes outside the footwall vein. Do not charge large-diameter deep holes inside the ore body.
[0012] E.All waste rock of large-diameter deep-hole blasting collapse outside the lower disc is transported out by the self-loading route of the scraper, and the waste rock needs to be completely removed before the lower disc wing ore body is recovered;
[0013] F.The large-diameter deep hole is constructed from the large hole drilling roadway 7 at the top of the stope to the junction of the ore body and the lower disc surrounding rock, and the stope after the lower disc surrounding rock blasting is a free surface. A cutting groove of a certain width is formed by the large-diameter deep-hole blasting from the bottom to the top in multiple times in the central area of the stope, and then the cutting groove is taken as the free surface, and the stope is blasted from both ends in multiple times, and the blasted ore is transported out through the loading route by the scraper in the mine roadway;
[0014] G.The stope is filled after recovery.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages or effects:
[0016] Because the stope structure arrangement is simple, the implementation is convenient, economical and efficient; at the same time, due to the strong combination of large-diameter deep-hole ore falling and high-cutting-gully ore receiving, the non-flat lower disc wing ore body with economic value is economically and efficiently mined without increasing the sublevel or auxiliary sublevel engineering, so that the production capacity and resource recovery rate of the edge and corner ore body are effectively improved.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the method for mining the footwall flank orebody in Gaoqiangou addresses the problem of economically and efficiently mining irregular footwall flank orebody without increasing the number of sub-sections or secondary subgrades. The specific technological steps and conditions are as follows:
[0025] A. Construct external connecting tunnels 3 from the upper hanging wall external transport tunnel 1 and the lower hanging wall external transport tunnel 2 respectively to reach the upper and lower hanging walls of the ore body;
[0026] B. Construct a bottom-pulling and ore-receiving roadway 4 along the length of the mining area at the center of the bottom of the mining area, and construct ore loading access roads 5 in the same direction from the bottom-pulling and ore-receiving roadway 4 to both sides of the mining area.
[0027] C. Construct a large-diameter deep-hole drilling connecting roadway 6 along the length of the mining area at the center of the top of the mining area, and construct a certain number of large-hole drilling roadways 7 from the drilling connecting roadway 6 to both sides of the mining area to reach the boundary of the mining area.
[0028] D. Drill large-diameter deep holes 8 from the rock-drilling connecting roadway 6 at the top of the mining area to the bottom-pulling and receiving roadway 4 at the bottom of the mining area. Using the bottom-pulling and receiving roadway 4 as the free face, charge and blast all large-diameter deep holes 8 outside the footwall vein. Do not charge large-diameter deep holes 8 inside the ore body.
[0029] E. All waste rock from the blasting of large-diameter deep holes 8 outside the footwall vein is transported out through the self-loading ore inlet 5 of the loader. The footwall side wing ore body is to be mined again only after all the waste rock has been removed.
[0030] F. From the top of the mining area, a large-diameter deep hole 8 is drilled through the large-hole rock drilling roadway 7 to reach the junction of the ore body and the footwall 9. The goaf area after the footwall blasting is used as the free face. In the central area of the mining area, a cutting groove of a certain width is formed by multiple blasts from bottom to top in the form of a step-like method using a large-diameter deep hole. Then, using the cutting groove as the free face, blasting is carried out from the center of the mining area to both ends in stages. The ore 10 after blasting is transported out through the loading roadway 5 by a loader in the bottom-pulling and receiving roadway 4.
[0031] G. After the mining area is recovered, the goaf is filled.
[0032] The process of the present invention can be further described as follows:
[0033] The upper plate external transport roadway 1, the lower plate external transport roadway 2, the bottom pull-and-receive ore roadway 4, and the ore loading access roadway 5 at the bottom of the mining area are all arranged in the lower plate surrounding rock.
[0034] The trench height extends from the top of the bottom roadway at the bottom of the mining area to the junction of the footwall and the surrounding rock.
[0035] The two sides of the trench should be flexibly arranged according to the interface of the surrounding rock of the mine, and the slope of the two sides of the trench should not be less than the natural angle of repose of the ore in this mine.
[0036] The trench full height is formed by large diameter deep hole 8 blasting, and the trench width is 3-6m;
[0037] The ore loading approach 5 is obliquely intersected with the draw bottom and receiving ore roadway 4 at 45-60°, and the ore loading approaches 5 of the bottom of adjacent each stope are in a straight line through each other, which facilitates the shovel loader to play the ore loading efficiency and avoids that the shovel loader cannot efficiently shovel and load the ore due to the too short ore loading approach;
[0038] The stope top is formed by the rock drilling communication roadway 6 and the large hole rock drilling roadway 7, which can realize the vertical and parallel arrangement of the large diameter deep hole 8, effectively reduces the stope boulder rate, and maintains the roof at the same time.
