Assessment of Abandoned Coal Mines as Urban Reservoirs
Mine Water and the Environment, 2019The closure of many coal mines has resulted in many being used as massive underground mine water storage systems in urban areas. We used a comprehensive fuzzy method to assess the suitability of abandoned coal mines as underground reservoirs. Five first-level and four second-level indices were chosen based on the hydrogeological conditions.

ABANDONED MINE WORKINGS AS A GEOECOLOGICAL FACTOR OF COAL MINING IN DONETS BASIN
SCIENTIFIC PAPERS OF DONNTU Series: “The Mining and Geology”, 2023Purpose. The purpose of the work was to present the degree of influence on the geoecological situation in the Donbas of abandoned mine workings that have been preserved at the outcrops of coal seams, and the currently existing methods for assessing this influence based on studies to establish patterns of deformation of the rock mass and the earth’s ...

Vegetation Establishment on Abandoned Coal Mined Land
Transactions of the ASAE, 1980ABSTRACT IN reclaiming mined lands site-specific planning is needed for the kind of plant materials, soil amend-ments, mulching, planting and other techniques. Vegetation should be established by accepted methods specially developed for use on mined lands.

Locating fires in abandoned underground coal mines
International Journal of Coal Geology, 2004Abstract A Mine Fire Diagnostic (MFD) Methodology was developed to determine the location and extent of combustion zones in abandoned underground coal mines. In this method, a characteristic fire signature is based on the ratio of higher molecular weight hydrocarbon gases (C2 to C5) to total hydrocarbon gas. Initially, gas samples are obtained at the

Post mining subsidence abatements in Wyoming abandoned coal mines
Mining Science and Technology, 1991Abstract Coal has been mined continuously in Wyoming since 1865. Nearly all the coal produced in the first 90 years of mining was from underground bituminous mines. Subsidence has been a threat in Wyoming since the beginning of coal mining; constituting an extreme danger to public health, safety and property. As a consequence, Wyoming mine subsidence

Hydrogeological definition and applicability of abandoned coal mines as water reservoirs
Journal of Environmental Monitoring, 2012Hydrogeologically, the Central Coal Basin (Asturias, Spain) is characterized by predominantly low-permeability materials that make up a multilayer aquifer with very low porosity and permeability values, where the sandstones act as limited aquifers, and wackes, mudstones, shales and coal seams act as confining levels. Preferential groundwater flow paths

Environmental Geochemistry and Health
Coal mining in India, especially open-cast mining, substantially strengthens the economy while concurrently causing environmental deterioration, such as soil pollution with toxic chemicals and heavy metals. This study sought to examine the efficacy of vermicompost as a remediation technique for Mine Tailing Soil (MTS) in the Ledo Coal Fields.
