Method of Conducting Excavations in the Mines Hazardous on Methane

M.V. Popov, E.M. Popov

It is shown that many types of substances in coal composition and finest particles newly formed as a result of water infusion in a seam enter into a reaction and bridge cracks, microcracks, nanocracks preventing methane escape. Preliminary decrease of seam gas content will result in safe increase of excavation conducting rate.

Strained Condition Control of the Solid Ore during Mining by Storey-Chamber System with Consolidating Stowing of Steeply-Deeping Heavy Ore Bodies

A.V. Zubkov, O.Yu. Smirnov

The survey results are given related to stressed-deformed state of the rock virgin ground, determination of stress parameters acting in the structural elements of the mining storey-chamber system. The above results and parameters are used for the development of measures on the control of the massif stressed state during mining of steeply-dipping heavy ore bodiesbystorey-chamber systemwith consolidating stowing(Gaiskoye field).

About New Authorities of Rostechnadzor

M.V. Startsev, V.K. Shalayev

Changes of Rostechnadzor authorities in the years of 2008 and 2010 are reviewed in the Article.

To the Issue of Control for the State of Dust-Explosion Proofness of Coal Mines Excavations

A.S. Podobrazhin

It is noted that for industrial and operative control of air dust content in excavations and coal mines production premises the express-dust counters and dust concentration measuring transmitters are used, which allow to define air dust content and dust settlement in the excavations, as well as to use relevant preventive measures on decreasing the probability of dust explosions.
