Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of ultra-deep shaft engineering modeling in metal mines, and specifically relates to a method for modeling disasters in ultra-deep shaft engineering in metal mines. Background Art
[0002] As mine construction continues to deepen, the complexity of the strata traversed by ultra-deep shafts increases. Deep rock masses are subject to high geostress, high confined water, high rock temperatures, and nonlinear dynamic loads, resulting in fundamentally different failure modes from those of shallow rock masses. The geological structure and stress accumulation-migration-release patterns of the surrounding rock mass result in deformation and failure characteristics, triggering conditions, dynamic response characteristics, and manifestation characteristics that differ from those of shallow shaft surrounding rock. Therefore, the deformation and failure of ultra-deep shafts are inextricably linked to their engineering geological environment, engineering dynamics, and the interactions between them. Shaft deformation and failure are influenced by natural factors such as the engineering geology, hydrogeology, geostress conditions, rock mass properties, groundwater, and temperature changes at the shaft location, as well as by engineering factors such as excavation disturbances and lifting dynamic loads. Currently, shaft deformation, instability, and damage are common problems both domestically and internationally. For example, at Australia's Mount Isa Copper Mine, shaft deformation and damage were caused by faults and mining sequences. At the Xiaoguanzhuang Iron Mine in Shandong Province, both the main and auxiliary shafts deviated due to mining activity. At the Jinchuan No. 2 Mine, an under-construction shaft collapsed immediately after being installed, affected by rock formation structure and horizontal geostress. At the Wangershan Gold Mine in Shandong Province, shaft wall damage also occurred due to rock formation properties and mining stress. At the Xuzhuang Mine in the Datun Mining Area in Jiangsu Province, the auxiliary shaft suffered two shaft fractures due to additional stress in the surrounding rock. Once a shaft is deformed or damaged, it directly impacts normal hoisting, severely restricting safe mine production.
[0003] The lack of transparency in geological information in the construction area is a major constraint on the safe and efficient construction of ultra-deep vertical shafts. With the surge in demand for deep mineral resource development, traditional geological exploration and shaft design methods face significant challenges in addressing the complex "three highs" (high geostress, high seepage pressure, and high geotemperature) environment of kilometer-scale vertical shaft projects. Deep mining geological environments exhibit significant multi-scale and multi-field coupling: The combined effects of high geostress, high seepage pressure, and tectonic movement create a complex structure of interwoven joints, faults, and alteration zones. Stratigraphic lithology exhibits heterogeneous distribution due to magmatic intrusion or metamorphism, and groundwater systems dynamically interact with geothermal fields. For example, the mylonite zone uncovered at a depth of 3,000 meters in the Mponego gold mine in South Africa exhibits a permeability gradient of three orders of magnitude, while the spatial coupling between the deep rockburst-prone zone and concealed faults in the Escondida copper mine in Chile exceeds 80%. This complexity requires that 3D geological modeling technology transcend the limitations of static stratigraphic divisions and achieve the coordinated characterization of geological structure, physical parameters, and dynamic processes. As the core support for intelligent mining, stratum transparency technology aims to achieve precise visualization of underground rock structure, geological formations, hydrological conditions, and responses to engineering disturbances through multi-source sensing, data fusion, and dynamic modeling, providing a scientific basis for decision-making in safe and efficient shaft construction. The future direction of development will be to strengthen research on the informatization, visualization, and intelligentization of ultra-deep shaft construction, operation, and maintenance, and gradually achieve safer, higher-quality, more efficient, and more intelligent construction and management of ultra-deep shafts.

[0047] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0048] The present invention demonstrates a technical method employed during the construction of an auxiliary shaft at a Shandong Gold Group gold mine. This shaft, constructed to a depth of 2,000 meters, is considered an ultra-deep vertical shaft. Shaft deformation and failure are closely related to the engineering geology, engineering dynamics, and the interactions between these environments. Therefore, by establishing a hazard model reflecting the engineering geology of the ultra-deep vertical shaft, the strata under construction are made transparent, hazard risks are proactively predicted, and construction accidents are mitigated.
[0049] The engineering disaster modeling method applied in this application is mainly applicable to ultra-deep vertical shafts with a depth of more than 1,500m. Due to the characteristics of "high well depth", ultra-deep vertical shafts face challenges such as high stratum stress, high aquifer pressure, and complex and changeable geological conditions during the construction process. They are always under the threat of disasters and it is difficult to ensure construction safety. By constructing a comprehensive engineering disaster model to reflect the rock formation information at different depths of the wellbore through the stratum and the spatial position relationship between the geological anomaly and the ultra-deep vertical shaft, the mechanical mechanism of ground pressure disasters induced by ultra-deep vertical shaft construction can be studied, and the criterion for the disaster-causing displacement of ultra-deep wellbore can be formed. It can also determine the key parameters such as the surrounding rock failure morphology and failure depth, providing a scientific basis for early warning and accident prevention and control. The application of this model will help accumulate ultra-deep wellbore engineering data, promote the formation of a core technology system for ultra-deep vertical shaft construction with independent intellectual property rights, and lay the foundation for the formulation of technical standards and specifications for deep vertical shaft construction in my country.
[0050] See also Figure 1 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present application, a method for modeling disasters in ultra-deep shaft engineering of metal mines is provided, comprising:
[0051] Step S1: Acquire engineering geological information of the well construction area and establish an ultra-deep vertical shaft geological model based on the engineering geological information of the well construction area. Specifically, it includes:
[0052] Step S11 : Conducting engineering geological survey on the well construction area of the ultra-deep vertical shaft III to obtain engineering geological information of the well construction area.
[0053] In this embodiment, a multi-scale engineering geological survey is conducted on the ultra-deep vertical shaft III construction area to obtain comprehensive engineering geological information including stratum lithology, geological structure, hydrogeology and geostress distribution.
[0054] Step S12: Based on the engineering geological information of the well construction area, the spatial positions of the fault fracture zone and the aquifer are divided, and the spatial interaction relationship between the geological anomaly and the ultra-deep vertical shaft III is determined.
[0055] Among them, the ultra-deep vertical shaft III construction area includes F1 fault fracture zone I and F3 fault fracture zone II.
[0056] Specifically, the ultra-deep vertical shaft III is located in the footwall of the northwest of the F1 fault fracture zone I. The F1 fault fracture zone I generally strikes northeast, but there is a bend in the middle, resulting in segmented changes in the strike; the bend section strikes about 17°, the average strike to the east is 38°, and the average strike to the west is 58°; the overall inclination is southeast, with an average dip of 46°; the shallow part dips to the northwest, with an inclination of about 70°~80°; and it tends to be normal above 400m.
[0057] The shallow dip angle of the F1 fault fracture zone I varies greatly, which may cause local rock mass fragmentation, so attention should be paid to shallow support.
[0058] Specifically, the F3 fault fracture zone II of the ultra-deep vertical shaft III strikes northwest, ranges from 300° to 310°, dips northeast, and has a dip angle of 80° to 90°. It has good water conductivity and is water-rich.
[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, strike refers to the extension direction of the fault fracture zone on the horizontal plane, expressed by azimuth; dip refers to the inclination direction of the fault fracture zone; dip refers to the angle between the fault fracture zone and the horizontal plane; hanging wall refers to the upper rock mass as the hanging wall and the lower rock mass as the foot wall when the fault fracture zone is inclined.
[0060] Among them, taking into account the influence of factors such as the recharge and drainage methods of various rock layers at different depths in ultra-deep vertical shafts, the hydraulic characteristics of groundwater, water richness, and location, the aquifer can be divided into the top drainage section, the mining affected section, and the deep unaffected section.
[0061] Step S13: cataloging the engineering survey hole rock core information, and dividing the ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering survey rock groups based on the engineering survey hole rock core information.
[0062] Among them, the core information of engineering survey holes is cataloged, including rock information, structural surface information, structural surface filling information and other information.
[0063] Specifically, rock information includes rock color, degree of weathering, rock structure, spacing between rock structural planes, hardness, rock lithology, and depth of occurrence. Structural plane information includes surface type, opening, presence of fillings, roughness, and occurrence. Structural plane filling information includes water content, color, thickness, continuity, hardness, filling type, and source.
[0064] Among them, the ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering survey rock groups are divided based on the core information of the engineering survey holes. That is to say, according to the rock information, structural surface information and structural surface filling material information, the rock strata within the survey depth range are divided into 13 engineering rock groups from top to bottom, namely: bedrock weathering zone rock group, monzogranite rock group, potash granite rock group, monzogranite rock group, sericite granite rock group, monzogranite rock group, sericite granite rock group, monzogranite rock group, sericite granite rock group, monzogranite rock group, sericite granite cataclasite rock group, monzogranite rock group, lamprophyre rock group, monzogranite rock group, and greisen rock group.
[0065] Step S14: cataloging the deep stratum core information of the excavation working face, and correcting the engineering survey hole core information based on the deep stratum core information of the excavation working face.
[0066] Specifically, during ultra-deep vertical shaft construction, water exploration and grouting are performed over extended sections at each drilling stage (e.g., 120 meters). Coring is performed at the same stage of the shaft excavation face to obtain 120-meter-long core samples. The core samples are cataloged using the core cataloging method in step S13 to correct the core cataloging information for the corresponding depth range of the engineering survey hole. This addresses limitations of the engineering survey stage, reduces construction risks, and improves project safety and economic efficiency.
[0067] Step S15: establishing a geological model of the ultra-deep vertical shaft based on the spatial interaction relationship between the geological anomaly and the ultra-deep vertical shaft and the rock formation of the ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering survey.
[0068] Specifically, a 3D cylindrical model of the shaft, a fault fracture zone model, an aquifer model, and an engineering survey rock formation model were constructed using Rhino modeling software. These models were then fitted to the 3D cylindrical model to create a geological model for the ultra-deep shaft. The fault fracture zone model and the engineering survey rock formation model were adjusted based on core data collected from the tunneling face during the construction phase, updating the geological model of the ultra-deep shaft.
[0069] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the ultra-deep vertical shaft geological model established by Rhino software intuitively displays the spatial relationship between the wellbore, fault fracture zone, aquifer and engineering survey rock group, providing a scientific basis for grouting, support and tunneling.
[0070] Step S2: Obtain the dominant structural surface group IV of the surrounding rock of the ultra-deep vertical shaft at different depths, obtain the rock physical and mechanical parameters, and obtain the rock mass mechanical parameters; and establish an ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering property model based on the dominant structural surface group IV, the rock physical and mechanical parameters, and the rock mass mechanical parameters.
[0071] Step S21: Conduct an underground field survey of the entire ultra-deep vertical shaft excavation process to obtain the occurrence information of the wellbore surrounding rock structure surface at different depths of the ultra-deep vertical shaft. Based on the occurrence information of the wellbore surrounding rock structure surface at different depths of the ultra-deep vertical shaft, obtain the dominant structure surface group IV of the wellbore surrounding rock at different depths.
[0072] Specifically, the on-site geological survey adopts the line survey method, uses the geological compass and the measuring ruler to measure the occurrence of the shaft surrounding rock structure surface revealed by the shaft excavation, and records the occurrence data of the structure surface, including the strike, dip, inclination, structure surface density, width, filling and other information; then the collected shaft surrounding rock structure surface occurrence data is imported into the Dips software for statistical analysis, and the generated structure surface isodensity map and structure surface rose diagram (such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, Figure 3The dominant structural surface group IV of the surrounding rock at different depths is obtained. The spatial distribution pattern of the main controlling structural surface is clarified, providing a basis for the stability evaluation and support design of ultra-deep vertical shafts.
[0073] Step S22: Collect rock samples at different depths of the ultra-deep shaft, conduct rock mechanics tests, and obtain rock physical and mechanical parameters.
[0074] Specifically: Rock samples were taken at different excavation depths in the ultra-deep shaft and processed into standard rock samples in accordance with the ISRM "Standard for Rock Mechanics Test Methods". The physical parameters of the standard rock samples were measured and the average density was calculated to be 2.6g / cm 3 Among them, physical parameters include diameter, height, and mass.
[0075] Subsequently, uniaxial compressive strength tests, Brazilian splitting tests, and shear tests were carried out on standard rock samples to obtain rock physical and mechanical parameters. In this embodiment, the RQD value of the ultra-deep vertical shaft surrounding rock is generally above 70%; the angles of the joints and fissures in the wellbore surrounding rock are all high-inclination micro-cracks, with an inclination range of 60°~90° and an opening of 0.1mm. The results of the rock physical and mechanical tests show that the uniaxial compressive strength σ of the deep rock mass is c It reaches 150 MPa, the elastic modulus E is 47.61 MPa, the cohesion c is 18.95 MPa, and the internal friction angle φ is 35.71°.
[0076] Step S23: classify the rock mass quality grades of the surrounding rocks at different depths of the wellbore, and calculate the mechanical parameters of the wellbore rock mass in combination with the Hoek-Brown strength criterion.
[0077] Based on the engineering geological information of the surrounding rock of the ultra-deep vertical shaft and the results of rock physics and mechanics tests, the Barton rock mass quality index Q classification, rock mass geomechanics RMR classification and geological strength index GSI classification methods are used to classify the rock mass quality grades at different shaft depths. Specifically:
[0078] The Barton rock mass quality index Q classification method is used to classify the rock mass quality at different depths of the wellbore. The Q value is determined by the following formula:
[0079]
[0080] Where, RQD is the rock mass quality index; J n is the number of joint groups; J r is a joint rough system; J a is the joint alteration coefficient; J w is the joint water reduction factor; SRF is the stress reduction factor.
[0081] The rock mass geomechanics RMR classification method is used to classify the rock mass quality at different depths of the wellbore. The RMR classification consists of six index parameters: rock strength A1, RQD value A2, joint spacing A3, joint condition A4, groundwater A5, and correction coefficient A6 for the influence of joint direction on engineering. The RMR value is determined by the following formula:
[0082] RMR=A1+A2+A3+A4+A5+A6
[0083] The geological strength index (GSI) classification method is used to classify the rock mass quality at different depths in the wellbore. The geological strength index (GSI) classification method breaks through the limitations of RMR and Q methods, which cannot be well applied to broken rock masses with extremely poor rock quality. It reflects the degree of weakening of rock mass strength under various geological conditions and is used to describe the characteristics of rock mass. Its value ranges from 0 to 100.
[0084] In this embodiment, the geological strength index GSI classification is obtained from Table 1.
[0085] Table 1 is the GSI grading chart
[0086]
[0087] Based on the above three different types of rock mass quality classification methods, the rock mass quality grades of the surrounding rock masses at different depths of the ultra-deep vertical shaft are obtained, as shown in Table 2:
[0088] Table 2 Results of rock mass quality classification of surrounding rock masses at different depths of ultra-deep vertical shafts
[0089]
[0090] Based on the rock mass quality classification results of the surrounding rock mass at different depth levels of the ultra-deep vertical shaft, the mechanical parameters of the shaft rock mass are calculated in combination with the Hoek-Brown strength criterion.
[0091] Step S24: establishing an ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering property model based on the information of the dominant structural surface group IV of the wellbore surrounding rock, the rock physical and mechanical parameters, and the wellbore rock mass mechanical parameters.
[0092] Specifically, the three-dimensional cylindrical model of the wellbore is imported into the numerical simulation software, and the dominant structural surface group model of the wellbore surrounding rock is constructed to fit the three-dimensional cylindrical model of the wellbore. The rock physical and mechanical parameters and the wellbore rock mass mechanical parameters are set to establish the ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering property model to reflect the rock mass property information of the ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering, such as Figure 5 shown.
[0093] Step S3: obtaining the dynamic response characteristics and local stability evaluation parameters of the ultra-deep vertical shaft surrounding rock; and establishing a numerical model of the ultra-deep vertical shaft based on the dynamic response characteristics and local stability evaluation parameters.
[0094] Among them, the dynamic response characteristics include the distribution characteristics of the disturbance stress field caused by ultra-deep vertical shaft excavation, the shaft displacement information, and the range of the shaft plastic zone; the local stability evaluation parameters include the position of the wedge and the safety factor.
[0095] Step S31: Establish a two-dimensional plane model of the shaft section, input the physical and mechanical parameters of the rock mass and the ground stress field, and analyze the distribution characteristics of the disturbance stress field caused by ultra-deep shaft excavation, the shaft displacement information, and the range of the shaft plastic zone.
[0096] Specifically: Based on Rockscience2 geotechnical engineering numerical analysis software, a two-dimensional plane model of the ultra-deep vertical shaft section was established. The rock mass mechanical parameters were set according to the rock physical and mechanical parameters obtained in step 22, and the Hoek-Brown strength criterion was used to characterize the nonlinear mechanical behavior of the deep rock mass. Subsequently, the ground stress field was applied and the model grid was refined to ensure the calculation accuracy. During the simulation process, the shaft was excavated section by section according to the construction sequence, and iterative calculations were performed at each step until the convergence criteria were met and the calculation was completed. The distribution law of the stress concentration area around the shaft was revealed through the analysis of the principal stress trajectory, and the distribution characteristics of the disturbance stress field were determined; the wellbore convergence deformation characteristics were analyzed through the displacement vector field to determine the wellbore displacement information; the range of the wellbore plastic zone was determined by the Hoek-Brown strength criterion, thereby evaluating the potential damage risk and guiding the support design.
[0097] Step S32: Establish a three-dimensional geometric model of the wellbore section, input the information of the dominant structural surface group IV of the wellbore surrounding rock to generate a wedge distribution model of the wellbore surrounding rock, and obtain the wedge position and safety factor of the wellbore surrounding rock.
[0098] Specifically: Using Unwedge software, a 3D geometric model of a circular wellbore section was established based on the wellbore's design dimensions. Information such as the occurrence, spacing, and continuity parameters of Group IV of the dominant structural surfaces was input, and the mechanical parameters of Group IV, including the internal friction angle, cohesion, and tensile strength, were set. By calculating the spatial intersection and combination relationships of the dominant structural surfaces, a wedge distribution model for the wellbore's surrounding rock was automatically generated, identifying and positioning potentially dangerous wedges. Finally, the safety factor of each wedge was calculated using the principle of mechanical equilibrium, clarifying the spatial position and instability risk level of the wedge blocks, providing a basis for targeted support design.
[0099] Step S33: establishing a numerical model of the ultra-deep vertical shaft based on the distribution characteristics of the disturbance stress field during ultra-deep vertical shaft excavation, the shaft displacement information, the range of the shaft plastic zone, and the wedge position and safety factor of the shaft surrounding rock.
[0100] Specifically: import the wellbore three-dimensional cylindrical model, construct the disturbance stress field distribution characteristic model, the wellbore displacement model, the wellbore plastic zone model, and the wedge distribution model; fit the disturbance stress field distribution characteristic model, the wellbore displacement model, the wellbore plastic zone model, and the wedge distribution model with the wellbore three-dimensional cylindrical model to establish the ultra-deep vertical shaft numerical model, such as Figures 6 to 8 shown.
[0101] Step S4: establishing a comprehensive model of ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering disasters based on the ultra-deep vertical shaft geological model, the ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering property model, and the ultra-deep vertical shaft numerical model.
[0102] Based on the ultra-deep shaft geological model, ultra-deep shaft engineering property model and ultra-deep shaft numerical model, a comprehensive model of ultra-deep shaft engineering disasters is established by comprehensively considering geological conditions, engineering properties and numerical simulation results.
[0103] This application proposes a method for modeling engineering hazards in ultra-deep vertical shafts in metal mines. The method is applicable to ultra-deep vertical shafts with complex geological conditions exceeding 1,500 meters. It uses multi-dimensional model fusion to achieve early warning and prevention of hazards such as rockbursts and sudden water inrush. The method includes four core modules: The ultra-deep vertical shaft geological model utilizes engineering geological analysis, core logging, and 3D modeling techniques to construct a visualization model of the spatial distribution of geological anomalies such as fault fracture zones and aquifers, as well as rock formation characteristics. The ultra-deep vertical shaft engineering property model quantifies surrounding rock mechanical parameters and engineering response characteristics based on downhole structural surface occurrence surveys, wellbore rock mechanics tests, and rock physical and mechanical parameters. The ultra-deep vertical shaft numerical model relies on numerical simulation tools such as Rockscience2 and Unwedge to analyze the stress field evolution, displacement field distribution, plastic zone range, and surrounding rock wedge stability under the influence of wellbore excavation disturbances. The comprehensive engineering hazard model integrates geological conditions, engineering properties, and dynamic mechanical response data through the linkage of three models, breaking through the limitations of traditional single-factor analysis and revealing the multi-factor coupling mechanism of disasters. Realizing the integration of all-factor data of "geology-engineering-mechanics" can accurately predict the disaster risk threshold and provide a scientific basis for the optimization of support parameters and dynamic adjustment of construction plans.
