Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mechanized mining in underground mines, and more specifically to a high-efficiency mining method for medium-deep hole filling with reserved space strip in gently inclined thin ore bodies. Background Art

[0002] Due to its special occurrence conditions of ore bodies, gently inclined thin ore bodies have always been considered as difficult-to-mine ore bodies. For such difficult-to-mine ore bodies, generally mining methods such as room-and-pillar method, open stoping method, and upward horizontal slicing filling method are used for stoping. However, since these mining methods require personnel and equipment to operate in the open space, the designed size of the stope is relatively small, and the thin ore body restricts the ore output. On the other hand, due to the gentle dip angle of the ore body, which is less than the natural angle of repose of the ore, the ore cannot slide by gravity, and trackless equipment cannot enter the stope for operation, resulting in a difficult problem in ore drawing. And currently, these mining methods still use shallow hole blasting for ore drawing, with small stoping scale and low efficiency. Therefore, the current situation of low mechanization level, large development and cutting work amount, high mining cost, long stoping cycle, and low safety forces the technicians in this field to improve the mining method for gently inclined thin ore bodies. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a high-efficiency mining method for medium-deep hole filling with reserved space strip in gently inclined thin ore bodies, which is applicable to the mechanized high-efficiency mining of gently inclined thin ore bodies with an ore body dip angle of 0 - 15° and good rock conditions, stable or moderately stable roof.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the high-efficiency mining method for medium-deep hole filling with reserved space strip in gently inclined thin ore bodies provided by the present invention includes the following steps: S1. Divide the stope: Divide the ore block to be mined into several panels, and divide each panel into several strip-shaped stopes. S2. Development and cutting: A crosscut for haulage is constructed at the top and bottom of each panel along the ore vein. A stope access drift and a ventilation drift are respectively constructed at the left and right ends of each panel perpendicular to the ore vein. Top pillars and bottom pillars are reserved in the stopes close to the crosscut for haulage, and protective ore pillars are reserved between adjacent panels. S3. Cutting: A crosscut for drilling is constructed in the first mined stope close to the crosscut for haulage at the bottom. After reserving the bottom pillar on the side close to the crosscut for haulage at the bottom, the crosscut for drilling is constructed parallel to the crosscut for haulage along the ore vein. S4. Stoping of the first mined stope: A cutting crosscut of the first mined stope is constructed at the end of the crosscut for drilling. Retreat-type ore caving is carried out in the crosscut for drilling with the cutting crosscut at the end as the compensation space, and the divided stopes are stoped by medium-deep hole blasting. S5. Ore drawing: After ore caving is completed, use a local fan to exhaust the blasting fumes at the working face, and use a trackless LHD to transport and unload the caved ore to the ore pass. S6. Continuous mining in the stope: After ore caving and ore drawing in the first mined stope are completed, a crosscut for drilling is reserved on the side of the goaf close to the adjacent unmined stope for stoping operations. Lay large-sized mine-use airbags, and after the airbags are inflated, they form a crosscut prosthesis. Build a filling retaining wall at the end of the goaf, and then fill the remaining goaf. After the strength of the filling body reaches the design strength requirement, a filling belt is formed. Remove the airbags to form a crosscut and continue to mine the next stope.

[0005] Preferably, in step S4, the stoping sequence of the ore block to be mined is: on the overall panel, stoping is carried out from bottom to top, and the end cut crosscut in the crosscut is used as a compensation space, and retreat stoping is gradually carried out.

[0006] Preferably, in step S4, in the crosscut, a column-mounted medium-deep hole drilling rig is used to drill upward medium-deep holes towards the side of the ore to be mined. The inclination angle of the blast holes is 0-15°, the hole depth is 6-8 m, the diameter of the medium-deep holes is 60 mm, the size of the strip-shaped emulsion explosive is 45 mm, the hole spacing is 1.1-1.2 m, and 3-4 rows of ore are caved each time.

[0007] Preferably, after the first mined stope in step S4 is mined out, the crosscuts of the adjacent stopes are reserved by the method of using airbags to reserve the crosscut of the next stope. The size of each airbag reserved crosscut is 3-3.5 m in width and 3-3.5 m in height.

[0008] Preferably, the structural parameters of the panel are: the panel width is 60-80 m, the height is 15-20 m, the length along the inclined plane of the ore body is 80-100 m, and the thickness is the thickness of the gently inclined thin ore body to be mined.

[0009] Preferably, the structural parameters of the stope are: the width between the left and right ends of the stope is 60-80 m, the height is 1-2 m, the length along the inclined plane of the ore body is 8-10 m, and the width of the protective ore pillar between the top pillar, bottom pillar and the adjacent panel is 3 m.

[0010] Preferably, the size of the crosscut roadway in the middle section is 3.8 m×3.5 m, the sizes of the stope connection roadway and ventilation drift are 3.3 m×3 m, the size of the crosscut is 3 m×3 m, and the size of the cut crosscut is 3 m×3.3 m.

[0011] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, compared with the prior art, the present invention discloses a high-efficiency mining method for medium-deep hole filling in reserved space strip of gently inclined thin ore bodies. The ore block is divided from the panel into a stope as the stoping unit, and small mechanized equipment with strong climbing ability and small working size, such as column-mounted medium-deep hole rock drilling rigs and trackless load-haul-dumpers, is used. Combined with upward medium-deep holes, the mechanized and large-scale mining of gently inclined thin ore bodies is realized. Secondly, by introducing large-sized mine airbags to reserve the rock drilling crossheading, the whole ore block development and cutting engineering is simple, and the development and cutting engineering quantity is greatly reduced. While controlling the mining cost, the stoping cycle is shortened, and the safe and efficient mining of gently inclined thin ore bodies with an inclination of 0-15° is realized. This method has the advantages of small development and cutting engineering quantity, high mechanization degree, high stoping efficiency and safe operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0016] Please refer to the attached Figures 1-6 , which is a high-efficiency mining method for medium-deep hole filling in a reserved space strip of gently inclined thin ore bodies disclosed by the present invention.

[0017] The high-efficiency mining method for medium-deep hole filling in a reserved space strip of gently inclined thin ore bodies provided by the present invention. The mining and cutting engineering of the entire panel only includes two cross-cut haulage roadways 1, one stope connection roadway 2, one ventilation crossheading 8, one drilling crossheading 3, and a cutting crossheading 9 that needs to be constructed at the end of each stope. The mining and cutting workload is small and the labor intensity is low. The specific steps are as follows: S1. Divide the stope: Divide the ore block to be mined into several panels, and divide each panel into several strip-shaped stopes; S2. Development: One cross-cut haulage roadway 1 is constructed along the ore vein at the top and bottom of the panel. One stope connection roadway 2 and one ventilation crossheading 8 are respectively constructed along the direction perpendicular to the ore vein at the left and right ends of the panel. Top pillars 4 and bottom pillars 5 are respectively reserved for the stopes close to the cross-cut haulage roadway 1, and protective ore pillars are reserved between adjacent panels; S3. Cutting: One drilling crossheading 3 is constructed in the first mining stope close to the bottom cross-cut haulage roadway 1. After leaving a bottom pillar 5 on the side of the drilling crossheading 3 close to the bottom cross-cut haulage roadway 1, it is constructed parallel to the cross-cut haulage roadway 1 along the ore vein; S4. First mining stope stoping: The cutting crossheading 9 of the first mining stope is constructed at the end of the drilling crossheading 3. Retreat mining is adopted in the drilling crossheading 3 with the cutting crossheading 9 at the end as the compensation space, and medium-deep hole caving is used to stop the mined-out stopes; S5. Ore drawing: After the ore caving is completed, use a local fan to exhaust the blasting fumes at the working face, and use a trackless LHD to transport and unload the caved ore to the ore pass; It should be noted that the slopes of the stope connecting roadway 2, ventilation roadway 8 and drilling crossheading 3 are all less than the climbing angles of mechanized equipment such as column-mounted medium-deep hole drilling rigs and trackless load-haul-dumpers, and their dimensions all meet the minimum working dimensions for the operation of mechanized equipment. Specifically, the dimension of the crosscut roadway 1 in the middle section is 3.8m×3.5m, the dimensions of the stope connecting roadway 2 and ventilation roadway 8 are 3.3m×3m, the dimension of the drilling crossheading 3 is 3m×3m, and the dimension of the cutting crossheading 9 at the end is 3m×3.3m. Underground personnel do not need to enter the goaf for operation. All drilling and hole-making work are carried out by column-mounted medium-deep hole drilling rigs in the drilling crossheading 3. Ore extraction is completed by a trackless load-haul-dumper entering the open stoping area, which greatly ensures the safety of underground operations. S6. Continuous mining in the stope: After the ore caving and ore extraction in the first mining stope are completed, a drilling crossheading 3 for stoping operation is reserved on one side of the goaf close to the adjacent unmined stope. A large-sized mine airbag 12 is laid. After the airbag 12 is inflated, it forms a drilling crossheading prosthesis, and a filling retaining wall 10 is constructed at the end of the goaf. Then, the remaining goaf is filled. After the strength of the filling body 6 reaches the design strength requirement, a filling belt 11 is formed. The airbag 12 is removed to form the drilling crossheading 3, and the next stope is continuously mined.

Considering the stope structural parameters, since only one drilling crossheading 3 is constructed in the whole panel, the panel can be divided into 11 stopes as a whole. The widths of the top pillar 4, bottom pillar 5 and the protective ore pillar between adjacent panels are 3m. It should be noted that the above structural parameters of the panel, stope, etc. and the dimensions of the protective ore pillar can be adjusted according to the actual construction of the roof and floor stability.

[0019] The stoping sequence of the ore block to be mined is: in the whole panel, stoping is carried out from bottom to top, and the end cutting crossheading 9 in the drilling crossheading 3 is used as the compensation space for gradual retreat stoping.

[0020] In the drilling crossheading 3, a column-mounted medium-deep hole drilling rig is used to drill upward medium-deep holes 7 towards the direction of the ore to be mined. The dip angle of the blast holes is 0 - 15°, the hole depth is 6 - 8m, the diameter of the medium-deep holes is 60mm, the size of the strip-shaped emulsion explosive is 45mm, the hole spacing is 1.1 - 1.2m, and 3 - 4 rows of ore are caved each time.

[0021] After the first mining stope is mined out, the rock drilling crossheadings 3 of adjacent stopes are reserved by the method of reserving with airbags 12. The size of the rock drilling crossheading 3 reserved by the airbag 12 each time is 3 - 3.5 m in width and 3 - 3.5 m in height.

[0022] It should be noted that the size of the rock drilling crossheading 3 can be adjusted according to the specific blasting task requirements and on-site operation conditions; the large-sized mine airbag 12 is made of materials with high strength and toughness, and can withstand the extrusion of the filling body 6 in the adjacent goaf and the rubbing of sharp rocks on the roof, floor and side walls; the specific usage method is to reserve the rock drilling crossheading 3 required for the mining operation of the stope on one side of the goaf close to the adjacent unmined stope, lay the large-sized mine airbag 12, and after inflation, it occupies the goaf to form a rock drilling crossheading prosthesis. After the remaining goaf is filled and cured and the filling body 6 reaches the design strength, the airbag 12 is selected to be cleaned or recycled according to the damage condition of the airbag 12.

[0023] The gentle dip thin ore body reserved space strip-type medium-deep hole filling high-efficiency mining method disclosed by the present invention is very beneficial to the mechanized high-efficiency mining of gentle dip thin ore bodies with an ore body dip angle of 0 - 15° and good rock conditions, and stable or moderately stable roofs; the cross-cut haulage headings are arranged along the ore vein in the ore body, and the stope connection headings and ventilation headings are respectively constructed perpendicular to the cross-cut haulage headings along the ore body dip to divide the ore block into panels; the rock drilling crossheadings parallel to the cross-cut haulage headings are constructed along the ore body strike at the bottom of the panel, and the cutting crossheadings are constructed at the ends of the rock drilling crossheadings, and the stopes (strips) are divided along the ore body dip in the panel to form the mining units; the upward medium-deep hole caving is adopted, and the retreat mining is carried out with the end cutting crossheading as the free face; the column-mounted medium-deep hole rock drilling rig is introduced for rock drilling, and the trackless scraper is used for ore drawing; this method has the advantages of small development and cutting work amount, high mechanization degree, high mining efficiency and operation safety.
