Review of Current and Expected Underground Coal Mining Methods and an Evaluation of the Best Practices Associated with These
2010
Review of underground coal production systems in South Africa set against practice in Australia, China and the United States, with guidance on equipment choice and section planning.
What this report foundSouth African underground sections average about 60 000 t a month, against 130 000 to 160 000 t for single pass bolter miner units on continuous haulage, while...

South African underground sections average about 60 000 t a month, against 130 000 to 160 000 t for single pass bolter miner units on continuous haulage, while the better sections target 1.4 to 1.6 Mt a year. Australian longwalls deliver 5 to 7 Mt a year from one face, compared with 3 to 5 Mt at the two local wall operations.
Determine Possible Means to Conduct Large Scale Frictional Ignitions Tests, and the Value of These to Coaltech

No operating full scale frictional ignition test facility was found anywhere in the world, and building one was judged expensive, impractical and unlikely to justify its cost against laboratory scale testing. Effort should instead go to small scale laboratory equipment using South African rocks, and to expanding geological data such as silica distribution and petrographic analysis.
Flammability, corrosion resistance and environment by V Mhlawakhe.pdf
Laboratory work turning high ash coal fines into moulded building composites, comparing coal tar pitch against a silicone binder, with strength, burning, corrosion and leaching tests. For product developers.
What this report foundAir blowing converted coal tar into a pitch with 11.27% volatile matter and 87.68% fixed carbon, which bound high ash coal fines into structural composites.

Air blowing converted coal tar into a pitch with 11.27% volatile matter and 87.68% fixed carbon, which bound high ash coal fines into structural composites. Compressive strengths ran from 106.58 to 344.71 MPa and flexural strengths from 48.75 to 159.30 MPa. Flammability was low across all composites and corrosion rates stayed below those of some commercial ceramic tiles.
