    摘要: In this invention there is taught the use of air tubes or fluid-filled containers to define permanent hollow tubular space within a body of solidified fill material placed in a mining excavation. The fill uses a mixture of solids and liquids with the addition of a structurally binding substance such as cement in order to make the fill substance permanent and capable of providing structural integrity and strength in the fill notwithstanding the empty tubular space. The empty tubular space can be used in accessways for mining and hauling of ore, or ventilation; it can also be used to provide volume within which to place fine component of tailings of a concentrator, or to store contaminants, or to route fill material. The tubular empty space within the fill reduces the weight, time and cost of the fill operation, and eliminates the need to drive galleries in waste rock, or of constructing costly timbered galleries or steel tubes within the stope prior to backfilling with tails. The fill provides support to the excavation, and permits work to be done below or above the fill substance. Mining methods are specified for the invention, including the use of raises, galleries and ramps in stopes. Apparatus is provided for the construction of large diameter inflatable tubes, having low surface tension. Air tubes that permit passage of workmen below the tube are specified, to permit progress of work while concrete roofs are setting. Special designs of hollow inflatable tubes using ring elements and axial elements are specified. There is taught method and apparatus for the use of inflatable tubes acting as moulds or forms for construction of concrete tubes, in which the tube's fabric substitutes firstly conventional wood or metal forms, and can remain integrated to the tube's concrete fill providing tension elements in substitution of steel.

    摘要: Mine passages are sealed remotely from the surface by drilling a borehole from the surface to intersect a mine passage. Fly ash is then pneumatically injected down the borehole in dilute phase at high velocity to form a partial seal obstructing more than 90% but less than 99% of the area of the mine passage. The emplaced fly ash displays the form of a conical pile with the flanking slopes curving concavely upward to the lips of a crater formed beneath the injection borehole. Sealing is then completed by injection of an expanding foam into the crater area.

    摘要: Provided is a filling mining method for a fully-mechanized top coal caving working face, which relates to the field of mining engineering technologies. The method solves the technical problems of roof control of the fully-mechanized top coal caving working face and a large ground deformation of top coal caving mining. The method includes the following steps: at step A, dividing the fully-mechanized top coal caving working face into a filling zone and a top coal caving zone along a strike of the working face, or dividing the working face into a filling zone and a top coal caving zone along a strike and an inclination of the working face; at step B, determining a cycle interval of the working face; at step C, performing supporting for the filling zone before the working face, and completing coal caving in the top coal caving zone and performing round wood supporting in the filling zone; at step D, after the filling zone reaches the filling interval, disposing a filling tarpaulin behind a hydraulic support and pumping the filling paste; at step E, repeating steps C and D to complete mining. A mining method of alternate coal caving and filling is provided to complete the filling mining of the top coal caving working face. In this way, the roof is effectively controlled, ground subsidence is reduced and advantages such as safety and high efficiency are available.

    摘要: Mining provides our society with many of minerals, metals, and gemstones for a wide variety of applications from mundane items through to expensive jewelry. But the mining operations generate waste and large empty shafts and stopes within the ground. It would beneficial to provide a lightweight material for backfill which can provide safer working conditions for miners as well as advantages in respect of weight reduction, reducing water consumption, rheology improvement and cost minimization. Equally, it would be beneficial for the lightweight backfill material to include mining tailings to reduce the impact external to the mine. However, the inclusion of mine tailings into a foam is counter-intuitive as mine tailings are generally characterized by a high proportion of small particles with sharp edges. However, embodiments of the invention provide just such a foam based mine backfill material.

    摘要: A method for forming a barrier to seal off a remote chamber includes the steps of: forming a borehole that communicates between a first location and the remote chamber; inserting a conduit through the borehole to extend into the remote chamber; introducing a flowable material through the conduit to the remote chamber and dispensing the flowable material from the conduit to the desired location for the barrier, the flowable material upon being dispensed producing a substantially solid, self-sustaining composition; maintaining dispensing the flowable material to produce a sufficient quantity of the self-sustaining composition to form the barrier to seal the remote chamber, while ensuring that the composition does not block the borehole from communicating between the first location and the remote chamber; and thereafter removing the conduit to allow access to the borehole.
