BECK Engineering

What this report found

Finite element simulation reproduced the rapid collapse of bord and pillar workings in the 2 Seam at a Witbank colliery, showing that progressive pillar deterioration triggers snap through of a strong sandstone plate in the overburden. Too little was known about the chosen collapse to back out a real pillar safety factor, so the calibration goal was not met.

Petrochemical Characterization of Dolerites and Their Influence on Coal in the Witbank Highveld Coalfield, South Arica

Johannes Jochemus du Plessis

2008

Masters study of dyke and sill intrusions at collieries in the Witbank and Highveld coalfields, using thin section petrography and X-ray fluorescence, for exploration geologists.

What this report foundDolerites in the study area differ in mineral content, geometry, thickness, grain size and degree of alteration.

What this report found

Dolerites in the study area differ in mineral content, geometry, thickness, grain size and degree of alteration. Plagioclase textures indicate fractionation at different depths in the crust for the Witbank and Sasolburg intrusions, and the olivine content points to separate magma sources for two of the sills. Fine crystalline dolerite, including chilled margins and bifurcations, alters most readily.
