Open-pit mines also consume a large amount of production water and ecological water in the normal production process, and the surrounding areas of the mining area also need a large amount of living, agricultural and ecological water. There is a huge contradiction between the inability to efficiently store mine water in open-pit coal mining and the extreme shortage of production water.

[0018] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following will be combined with the attached Figures 1 to 4 The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] like Figure 2 As shown, open-pit mining of coal mines is a process of excavating shallow coal seams by open-pit mining and forming an open-pit mine 1 at the excavation point. The geological section of the open-pit mine area generally includes a covering layer 2, an original aquifer 3, an original impermeable layer 4, a bedrock 5, a coal seam 6 and a deep bedrock aquifer in the bottom of the coal seam from top to bottom. In the process of open-pit mining of coal mines, an open-pit mining area will be formed first and the original mined soil and rocks will be transferred to the outside of the mining area. As the mining area of ​​the open-pit mine 1 increases and the cost of earthwork transportation is reduced, the working surface area opposite to the mining direction of the open-pit mine 1 is used as an internal dumping ground for storing Quaternary gravel and rock blocks stripped from the mining area of ​​the mining area, thereby reducing the cost of earthwork transportation and gradually realizing the ecological restoration of the mining area.

[0020] like Figure 1~2 As shown, the present invention discloses a three-dimensional storage method suitable for open-pit mine water, and the three-dimensional storage method comprises the following steps: 1. Carry out regional geological and hydrogeological surveys in the open-pit mining area to obtain the regional topographic and geomorphic parameters of the open-pit mining area, as well as the hydrogeological parameters of the dump, the Quaternary aquifer and the deep bedrock aquifer in the coal seam floor; the hydrogeological parameters include the water level of the aquifer, the permeability of the aquifer, the water storage coefficient of the aquifer, the amount of water in the mine, the water inflow point of the mine, the mining plan, the size of the dump and the permeability of the dump. The regional topographic and geomorphic map of the mining area is detected by remote sensing technology to obtain the regional topographic and geomorphic map and stratigraphic columnar map of the mining area; the groundwater level contour map of the shallow Quaternary aquifer in the coal seam roof, the water level contour map of the sandstone confined aquifer in the deep coal seam floor, the amount of water in the mine, the water inflow point of the mine, etc. are obtained through construction survey drilling.

[0021] 2. Determine the water inflow and water quality characteristics of the open pit 1, and establish a dynamic monitoring system and data collection mechanism for the water inflow of the mine. Determine the water quality standards for the water inflow of the mine and the water quality standards for the five storage systems, namely, the surface water storage system 7, the pit bottom water storage system 8, the waste dump reconstructed ecological aquifer storage system 9, the Quaternary loose aquifer storage system 10, and the deep bedrock aquifer storage system 11 of the coal seam floor. Combined with the water inflow of the mine, determine the storable water volume of the five storage systems.

[0022] The following is an example of an open-pit mine in Inner Mongolia: A large amount of mine water gushing occurs during the mining of an open-pit mine in Inner Mongolia. Due to the limited water storage locations and imperfect water storage methods in the mining area, a large amount of water resources are wasted. At the same time, a large amount of drainage causes the groundwater level of the main water-filled Quaternary loose aquifer to drop by more than 30m at 5km in the mining area. In addition, due to the serious leakage of stripping deposits in the mine dump, the ecological reclamation of the dump is difficult. In order to alleviate the water use problem in the mining area and the surrounding areas of the mining area during production, as well as the ecological restoration of the dump after the pit is closed and the groundwater level restoration of the Quaternary aquifer, the construction method of the open-pit mine 1 three-dimensional storage system of the present invention is adopted to achieve safe and efficient storage and utilization of mine water resources.

[0023] The water inflow of the mine is about 84000m 3 / d, and established a dynamic monitoring system for mine water inflow to determine the water quality characteristics of mine water inflow as shown in Table 1.

[0024] Table 1 Water quality characteristics of mine water inflow: .

[0025] 3. Plan a three-dimensional storage system for open-pit mine water and carry out construction according to the process requirements of the three-dimensional storage system.

[0026] The three-dimensional storage system includes five storage systems: surface water storage system 7, pit bottom water storage system 8, spoil dump reconstructed ecological aquifer water storage system 9, Quaternary loose aquifer water storage system 10 and coal seam floor deep bedrock aquifer water storage system 11. Combined with the water gushing volume of the open-pit mine 1, the corresponding water quality standards and storable water volume of the five storage systems are determined.

[0027] Surface water storage system 7, pit bottom water storage water storage system has no additional requirements for the quality of stored water. The main water source of mine water is the Quaternary aquifer, so the waste dump reconstructed ecological aquifer and the Quaternary loose aquifer can be used to store mine water. The water quality of mine water is better than that of the coal seam floor aquifer, so the deep bedrock aquifer of the coal seam floor can also be used to store mine water. Combined with the mine water inflow of open pit 1, the storage water volume that can be accommodated by the five storage systems is determined.

[0028] 1. Specific construction steps of surface water storage system 7.

[0029] Conduct geological surveys on the open-pit mine area to obtain soil type and groundwater level parameters, plan multiple reservoir locations in the eastern area of ​​the open-pit mine area where the geological structure is stable, the groundwater level is low, and there are no adverse geological bodies; design the volume, depth and anti-seepage measures of the reservoir.

[0030] The surface water storage system 7 has three water storage tanks, each with a length, width and height of 70m, 20m and 2m respectively, with a capacity of about 2800m 3 Excavate the reservoir to form a reservoir body that meets the design, lay HDPE anti-seepage membrane or concrete lining, and complete the anti-seepage treatment of the pool bottom and pool wall.

[0031] Install a drainage system consisting of water collection wells and drainage pipes, and lay water diversion pipes to drain rainwater and mine water. Equip the reservoir with a pH sensor and turbidity meter to form an automatic water quality monitoring system, and monitor the changes in water quality in the reservoir. Establish a regular inspection mechanism for the surface water storage system 7, clean the sediment in the reservoir and check the anti-seepage system.

[0032] 2. Specific construction steps of the pit bottom water storage system 8.

Excavate the open pit bottom reservoir, ensure the stability of the bottom and surrounding rocks of the reservoir, and use grouting technology to reinforce the reservoir floor to prevent settlement and leakage. Lay HDPE anti-seepage membrane or concrete lining, double-layer waterproof concrete sandwiched with anti-seepage membrane, and complete the construction of the anti-seepage layer. Lay out a water circulation system consisting of water diversion pipes and drainage pipes to drain rainwater and mine water; set up a fully automatic water level monitor for the reservoir to track the water level in real time. Establish a regular inspection mechanism for the pit bottom water storage system, clean the sediment in the reservoir and inspect the anti-seepage system.

[0034] 3. Specific construction steps of the dump site to reconstruct the ecological aquifer water storage system 9.

[0035] A damage assessment is conducted on the thickness, lithology, permeability, strength of the original aquifer and original impermeable layer of the open-pit mine 1, as well as the scope and extent of damage to the open-pit mine 1. The hydrogeological parameters of the original aquifer 3 and the original impermeable layer 4 of the open-pit mine 1 are obtained through geological exploration, drilling sampling, and indoor testing.

[0036] A relationship curve between the groundwater level depth and vegetation coverage in the open-pit mining area was established. The thickness of the artificially reconstructed aquifer and the depth of the impermeable layer were designed based on the relationship curve. It was determined that the groundwater level should be less than 1.5m deep and the impermeable layer should be within 1.5m of the surface of the dump site to maintain ecological water use on the surface of the dump site.

[0037] The reconstructed waterproof layer 14 is formed by combining natural materials such as clay or bentonite in the mining area with polymer synthetic materials to form a composite waterproof layer material with good construction performance. The thickness of the reconstructed waterproof layer 14 should be greater than or equal to the thickness of the original waterproof layer and should be connected to the original waterproof layer.

[0038] The Quaternary gravel and rock blocks stripped from the mining area are used as aquifer materials. Grouting pumps and rollers are used to construct the dump site reconstructed aquifer in the inner dump site by grouting and compaction methods. The thickness of the ecological aquifer reconstructed in the dump site should be less than or equal to the thickness of the original aquifer and connected to the original aquifer, and it is ensured that the construction process can effectively fill the voids and cracks in the aquifer. After the construction of the ecological aquifer reconstructed in the dump site is completed, grouting is performed in the slope area to form a reinforced slope 13 to ensure the stability of the slope. The width of the grouting reinforcement area is calculated using the empirical formula of the water-bearing or water-conducting fault water-blocking coal (rock) pillar: .

[0039] In a specific embodiment, L is the width of the grouting reinforcement area / m; K is the safety factor, which is 5; M is the thickness of the ecological aquifer reconstructed by the spoil dump / m, which is 60m; p is the actual head value at the maximum water storage capacity of the ecological aquifer reconstructed by the spoil dump / MPa, which is 0.6MPa; Kp is the tensile strength of the grouting reinforced section rock-concrete composite / MPa, which is 4.0MPa, and the construction width of the slope grouting reinforcement area for reconstructing the ecological aquifer of the spoil dump is 100.6m.

[0040] Construct a phased pile hole pressure-type anti-seepage wall or a trench-filled waterproof wall to prevent the lateral loss of the restored shallow water, and the horizontal aquiclude is completed when the open-pit mine is closed. Carry out quantitative evaluation of parameters and calculation of recharge water volume under different recharge conditions for the ecological aquifer reconstructed in the spoil dump, use GMS numerical simulation software to simulate and calculate the water mixing ratio, runoff velocity, and runoff time of the groundwater in the ecological aquifer reconstructed in the spoil dump, study the hydrodynamic field and migration and diffusion laws of characteristic components under the recharge conditions of the ecological aquifer reconstructed in the spoil dump, and carry out slope stability, recharge environmental impact assessment, and safe mining impact assessment under the recharge conditions of the ecological aquifer reconstructed in the spoil dump.

[0041] 4. Specific construction steps of the Quaternary loose aquifer water storage system 10.

[0042] Conduct hydrogeological exploration and pumping tests of the shallow Quaternary aquifer in the coal seam roof of the open-pit mine area to identify the hydrogeological parameters and groundwater runoff characteristics of typical recharge areas; The east side of the open pit 1, which is downstream of the groundwater runoff direction of the open pit and has strong stratum permeability, was selected to carry out drainage water recharge. Multiple recharge wells 12 were constructed in the recharge area as injection wells and observation wells. Groundwater automatic monitoring instruments were installed in the observation wells to test the water level, water temperature and conductivity data of the Quaternary loose aquifer online, and to carry out water level and water quality monitoring during the recharge process. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, there are 7 injection wells and observation wells in total. Well No. 1 is used as an injection well, and the recharge water volume can reach 200m 3 / h, the other 6 wells are observation wells, and the 6 observation wells are arranged on the rear side of the injection well in the form of vertices and midpoints of the sides of an equilateral triangle; the injection well has a full wellbore diameter of Φ450mm, with casing of Φ273mm and filter tube of Φ273mm inserted; the monitoring well has a full wellbore diameter of Φ330mm, with casing of Φ108mm and filter tube of Φ108mm inserted.

[0043] During the recharge process of the Quaternary loose aquifer, samples of groundwater were taken to test suspended matter, organic matter, microorganisms, and special indicator components of mine water. The overall water quality of the Quaternary drainage was better than that of mine water, and it was determined that the Quaternary drainage could be used for "raw water recharge" for the Quaternary recharge.

[0044] like Figure 4 The schematic diagram of the groundwater flow field of the Quaternary loose aquifer recharge storage is shown in the figure. The quantitative evaluation of the parameters under the original hydrogeological conditions and different recharge conditions and the calculation of the recharge water volume are carried out. The GMS numerical simulation software is used to simulate and calculate the water mixing ratio, runoff velocity, runoff time and discharge water volume of the Quaternary loose aquifer groundwater. The hydrodynamic field and the migration and diffusion laws of the characteristic components under the recharge conditions of the Quaternary loose aquifer are studied. It is determined that a single well of 200m is carried out in the downstream of the overall groundwater flow direction, that is, outside the water cut-off curtain 17 on the east side of the open-pit 1. 3 / d of recharge volume, the Quaternary loose aquifer water storage system 10, the Quaternary loose aquifer recharge well 16 and the Quaternary groundwater flow line 15 are as follows Figure 4 Carry out the environmental impact assessment of the recharge of the Quaternary loose aquifer and the impact assessment of safe mining, with a single well of 200m 3 The recharge scheme of / d has little impact on the drainage of open pit 1.

[0045] 5. Specific construction steps of the deep bedrock aquifer water storage system 11 in the coal seam floor.

[0046] Combined with the on-site water pressure test phase and past monitoring and detection data, the ground recharge holes were constructed in the east wall area of ​​open-pit mine 1, which is convenient for ground water and power supply, close to the reservoir, avoids land acquisition costs, is easy to maintain, and has good permeability of the recharge target layer.

Based on the operation plan of the open-pit mine 1, use the surface water storage system 7, the pit bottom water storage system 8, the spoil dump reconstructed ecological aquifer water storage system 9, the Quaternary loose aquifer water storage system 10 and the coal seam floor deep bedrock aquifer water storage system 11 to dynamically store and use water, and complete the three-dimensional storage and resource utilization of water resources in the open-pit mine area.

[0049] Water use includes five ways: production water in the mining area, ecological water in the mining area, domestic water around the mining area, agricultural water around the mining area, and ecological water around the mining area. The principle of water use is to give priority to production and ecological water in the mining area, and secondly to domestic water, agricultural water, and ecological water around the mining area.

[0050] The water storage principle is determined according to the amount of water that can be stored in the mining area, the water use route and the water use principle. During the drainage and operation of the open-pit mine 1, surface water reservoirs and pit bottom water reservoirs are used for temporary water storage, and used for production and ecological water in the mining area, as well as for living and agricultural water in the surrounding areas of the mining area. Secondly, in combination with the different hydrogeological conditions of the open-pit mining area, the ecological aquifer, the loose aquifer of the Quaternary system and the bedrock aquifer deep in the coal seam floor are reconstructed using the spoil dump for recharging and storage; during the drainage and operation of the open-pit mine 1, the ecological aquifer is reconstructed using the spoil dump for water storage, and used for ecological water in the mining area; water is stored through the injection wells of the loose aquifer of the Quaternary system and the injection wells of the deep aquifer of the coal seam floor, and used for living water, agricultural water and ecological water in the surrounding areas of the mining area.

[0051] The three-dimensional storage system constructed by the present invention can effectively restore the aquifers and impermeable layers destroyed by open-pit mining operations, and establish hydraulic connections with the original aquifers. The rapid recovery of Quaternary groundwater after replenishment can raise the groundwater level, thereby improving the three-dimensional storage efficiency of open-pit mine water, effectively reducing the loss of groundwater resources in open-pit mining, the area of ​​the drop funnel and the depth of the water level drop, and can achieve high-efficiency, multi-channel and long-term utilization of mine water resources.

[0052] The above are preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
