Audit and Diagnostic Assessment of Productivity in Continuous Miner Sections
Mine level study of the human and social influences on continuous miner section output, using interviews, focus groups, observation and work study at participating collieries, for mine managers.

Section performance was limited by the will and motivation of the workforce, not by equipment, layout or technical competence, all of which were found sound. Team based bonus payments were the strongest motivator and reinforced cooperation across shifts and functions, but dependence on bonus income to meet monthly expenses turned it into a source of stress. Recognition in front of colleagues and family motivated strongly.

A 30 tonne per hour pilot Allair dry jig upgraded run of mine coal to thermal coal specification, but could not effectively beneficiate finer duff. Cut point densities and EPM values matched other dry processing equipment, though the jig appeared to give better control of the parameters governing separation. Four tests ran on run of mine coal and two on duff.
