Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of mining technology, in particular to a mining method combining upward approach and segmented filling. Background Art
[0002] For inclined medium-thick or thicker ore bodies with broken upper surrounding rock and moderately stable ore bodies, once the upper surrounding rock is exposed in the mining area, roof collapse often occurs, and may even collapse continuously upward to the middle section of the upper mining area or directly to the surface, seriously threatening the safety of mining personnel and equipment and causing loss and waste of ore.
[0003] To address the mining challenges of this type of orebody, both domestic and international approaches often employ layered backfill or upward approach backfill. Others employ long cable anchor support in the hanging wall followed by segmented backfill for mining. However, these known single mining methods present the following challenges: low mining capacity and significant safety risks; high support costs; and high ore depletion and loss rates, hindering safe, economical, and efficient mining.
[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance for our research group to develop an efficient and safe mining method for inclined medium-thick or thicker ore bodies with broken hanging wall surrounding rock and moderately stable ore bodies. Summary of the Invention

The segmented filling method is preferentially used to mine the ore body near the footwall. Most of the ore body is mined without exposing the surrounding rock of the hanging wall. The mining area is then filled. After that, the upward approach filling method is used to mine the ore body near the broken surrounding rock of the hanging wall. This method can ensure the safety of medium-stable, inclined, medium-thick or above ore bodies with broken surrounding rock of the hanging wall, and can also be mined economically and efficiently. This method can achieve safe, economical and efficient mining of medium-thick or above ore bodies with broken surrounding rock of the hanging wall. It can maximize the recovery of ore resources while ensuring the safety of the stope, while achieving higher production capacity.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages or effects:
[0009] Because the segmented filling method is located in a medium-stable ore body during mining, there is no need to expose the broken surrounding rock of the upper plate, so it can ensure that the segmented filling method with high production capacity is located in a medium-stable ore body during mining; at the same time, since the upward approach filling method is used when it is necessary to expose the surrounding rock of the upper plate, it has strong controllability, and the depletion and loss are small; in addition, since only two layered connecting roads need to be added in a plate area during mining using the upward approach method, the additional engineering volume is small and the support cost is low, which not only ensures the safety of mining, but also maximizes the recovery of ore resources and greatly improves the comprehensive production capacity of the mine.

[0017] The specific process steps and conditions of the present invention can be further
[0018] First, the ore body is divided into plate areas, which are about 60m long, 45m wide, and 15m high. The ore body about 35m thick near the lower plate is mined by the segmented filling method, and the ore body about 10m thick near the upper plate is mined by the upward approach filling method.
[0019] In the panel area, the segmented filling mining method area (2) is mined first, and the mining sequence is one or three mining. After all the segmented filling mining areas in the panel area are mined and filled, the upward approach filling mining method area (1) is mined.
[0020] When mining in the segmented filling mining method area (2), the roof and side walls are located in a medium-stable ore body and do not require support. The stope is about 35m long, 12-15m wide, and 15m high in a segment. The mined ore is shoveled out by a remote-controlled scraper through the upper and lower plate mine tunnel connecting road (14) and the upper and lower plate vein mine tunnel (7, 8) to the ore chute; after all the ore in the stope is mined, the empty area of the stope is immediately filled with cemented filling.
[0021] After all the stopes of the segmented filling mining method area (2) in the plate area are mined and filled, and the filling body strength reaches the design strength, the upward approach filling mining method area (1) is mined. The 15m segment height is divided into three layers for mining. The vertical mining order is from bottom to top. The remaining 10m wide ore body thickness is divided into two approach stopes for mining. The approach stope close to the lower plate is mined first, and then the approach stope of the upper plate is mined. The cross-section of a single approach stope is 5m×5m and the length is about 60m. The upward approach filling method stope adopts anchor mesh spraying support.
[0022] The distance between the upper wall vein outbound mining tunnel (8) and the upper wall ore body boundary (10) is at least 25m, so as to ensure the construction of the second and third layer connecting roads (12, 13) of the upper approach method when the upper approach filling method is turned upward.
[0023] The slopes of the second layered connecting road (12) of the upward approach method and the third layered connecting road (13) of the upward approach method are both 8 to 9 degrees.
[0024] In industrial applications, for mining of inclined medium-thick or thicker ore bodies with broken hanging wall surrounding rock and moderately stable ore bodies, it includes but is not limited to the following steps and conditions:
[0025] A. The ore body is divided into panels for mining. The panel ore body boundary (9) includes the ore body of the upward approach filling mining method area (1) and the ore body of the segmented filling mining method area (2). The panel is about 60m long, about 45m wide (the thickness of the ore body), and 15m high (the segmented height). The upward approach filling mining method area (1) is arranged as the upward approach filling method stope (3) for mining, and the segmented filling mining method area (2) is arranged as the segmented filling method stope (4) for mining.
[0026] B. The sub-level filling method stope (4) is close to the footwall ore body boundary (11), and the upward approach filling method stope (3) is close to the hanging wall ore body boundary (10). Within the range of the wall ore body boundary (9), the sub-level filling method area (2) ore body is mined first, and then the upward approach filling method area (1) ore body is mined;
[0027] C. The stope of the segmented filling method (4) is arranged perpendicular to the ore body, with a length of 35m, a width of 12m, and a height of 15m. The stope does not require support, and the segmented filling method stope (4) within the panel area adopts the method of mining every other piece or every third piece.
[0028] D. After all the sub-division filling method stope (4) is mined and the sub-division filling method stope filling body (5) is filled, and the filling body strength reaches above 1MPa, then the upward approach filling mining method area (1) stope is mined. The upward approach filling method stope (3) is arranged along the ore body strike, with a stope length of 60m, a width of 5m, and a height of 5m. The vertical direction adopts a bottom-up mining sequence. In the horizontal direction, the approach stope close to the sub-division filling method stope (4) is mined first, and then the approach stope close to the upper wall broken surrounding rock (15) is mined. The stope adopts anchor mesh spraying support.
[0029] E. The ore mined in the staged filling stope (4) is transported to the middle ore chute through the upper wall vein out-mining tunnel (8) and the lower wall vein out-mining tunnel (7). The upper wall vein out-mining tunnel (8) is 25 to 30 meters away from the upper wall ore body boundary (10), and the lower wall vein out-mining tunnel (7) is 15 to 25 meters away from the lower wall ore body boundary (11);
[0030] F. The upward approach filling method stope (3) is divided into three layers from bottom to top for mining, and each layer is 5m high. The ore mined in the first layer stope is directly mined using the existing upper wall vein mining tunnel (8) and upper wall mining tunnel connecting road (14) of the segmented filling method stope (4). The second layer stope needs to construct a second layer connecting road (12) of the upward approach method for mining and transportation. The third layer stope needs to construct a third layer connecting road (13) of the upward approach method for mining and transportation. The slope of the layer connecting road is 8-9°.
[0031] G. When mining with the upward approach filling method (3), the upper plate broken surrounding rock (15) will be exposed, and anchor mesh spraying is required for support. Since the span of the upward approach filling method (3) is small, only 5m, the support is convenient and flexible, and the ore body close to the upper plate ore body boundary (10) can be recovered to the maximum extent.
[0032] As described above, the present invention can be better implemented. The above embodiments are only the best implementation methods of the present invention, but the implementation methods of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments. Other changes, modifications, replacements, combinations, and simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principles of the present invention should be considered equivalent replacement methods and are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
