31/01/2020 Anglo American (LON: AAL) confirmed on Friday the collapse of a roof at its Moranbah North coking coal mine in Queensland, Australia, adding that no one was injured.
The company said the collapse was triggered by a geotechnical issue. Analysts at Jefferies said while it was too early to say how long the mine, located in the Bowen Basin, would be offline, "if we assume the mine is down for the year, this would be a circa US$350 million consolidated EBITDA hit for Anglo's 2020E results, equating to circa 3.5% on our price deck and circa 3% on spot prices".
8/07/2019 The last suspension of mining at Donkin due to a roof collapse occurred after Christmas, resulting in the province ordering the company to seek independent advice on a fresh roof

Anglo American has lowered its expectation for metallurgical coal production this year following the roof collapse incident at the Queensland-based Moranbah North mine in January.
Coal mining is the process of extracting coal from the ground. Coal is valued for its energy content and since the 1880s, has been widely used to generate electricity. Steel and cement industries use coal as a fuel for extraction of iron from iron ore and for cement production. In the United Kingdom and South Africa, a coal mine and its structures are a colliery, a coal mine – a pit, and the ...
An underground resources company was forced to interrupt production when a roof collapsed at its coal mine and infrastructure in Central Queensland on October 17. Work was interrupted for days after a section of the roof caved in at Bounty Mining’s Cook Colliery, 195km west of Rockhampton. “Bounty Mining confirms that on 17 October 2019 a minor roof fall in the 203B panel at the company ...

8/07/2019 Operations at Canada’s only operating underground coal mine have been suspended because of another roof collapse, this time in the entrance tunnel to the Cape Breton colliery.
Primary ground control challenges in underground coal mines include roof skin deformation, roof collapse, and outbursts of coal, gas, and water. Microseismic monitoring provides valuable information on rockmass behavior and fracture propagation caused by stress redistribution, active geological structures, or gas build up within the coal strata and the surrounding rockmass. ESG offers ...
Ground support solutions are essential foundations to the safety of today’s underground mining operations. Our solutions provide underground operations support with cavity filling and consolidation of fractured ground and void spaces, strata control for stability of rock faces preventing rock fall and roof failures, and provisions for managing water ingress and air control.

A ROOF fall has occurred on the longwall installation face in a dangerous incident at a New South Wales underground coal mine. Future Of Mining > Sustainability 27 February 2019
A mining accident is an accident that occurs during the process of mining minerals or metals. Thousands of miners die from mining accidents each year, especially from underground coal mining, although accidents also occur in hard rock mining.Coal mining is considered much more hazardous than hard rock mining due to flat-lying rock strata, generally incompetent rock, the presence of
One of the most challenging safety problems in underground longwall coal mining is massive roof collapse in mined-out area during retreat mining. Understanding the mechanisms and geotechnical precursors of massive roof collapse is of great importance for risk assessment and ground control. In this study, a large-scale physical model was created based on a real case to simulate massive roof ...
Mines with exceptionally low-strength roof (UCS <3,500 psi and CMRR <40) are much more likely to struggle with roof falls than other mines. Weak roof is a particular problem for many room and pillar mines in the Midwestern and Northern Appalachian coal basins. Traditional roof support techniques are often not up to the challenge at these operations. This paper focuses on two mines, one ...

Coal Mining. Underground coal mining is the toughest job on earth. The ever-present dangers of a roof collapse, coal dust, and high gas levels make safety critical to every aspect of an underground coal mining operation. The unforgiving nature of a coal miner’s environment poses a challenge to even the most experienced operators, and the world’s most productive coal mining operations rely ...

These pillars were apparently failing because ...
Cline Group LLC's Kameron Collieries ULC is ceasing operations at the Donkin coal mine in Nova Scotia, citing adverse geologic conditions that have led to roof falls in recent years. The mine will not be sealed but maintained by a small staff to ventilate and keep the facility dewatered, Kameron said in a March 30 release provided by Morien Resources Corp., which owns a royalty in the mine.
