Experimental Investigation into the Bedding Plane Slip Effect on the Overlying Strata Behavior in Longwall Top Coal Caving of Soft Coal Seam. Hengfeng Liu, 1,2 Jixiong Zhang, 1,2 Nan Zhou, 1,2 Qiang Sun, 1,2 Meng Li, 1,2 and Zhizhong Cui 1,2. 1 State Key Laboratory of Coal .
Longwall Topcoal Caving (TCC) is a method of extraction for underground mining of thick seams. It uses a longwall setup and natural forces to aid in the winning of coal. With this method of extraction only a single longwall is developed at the foot of the seam. The control of the roof layers at the face is by means of powered supports.
Longwall Top Coal Caving. Longwall top coal caving (LTCC) is a special type of longwall mining applicable to very thick seams (greater than ) where good quality coal is being left because "conventional" longwall equipment has not yet been designed to operate successfully beyond around 5m .
Feb 19, 2014· LTCC • Longwall Top coal Caving (LTCC) is a method of extraction for underground mining of thick seams. • It uses a longwall setup and natural forces to aid in the winning of coal. 4.
Longwall top coal caving (LTCC) is a relatively new method of mining thick coal seams that is currently achieving high productivity and efficiency in application, particularly in China. The technique is similar to traditional longwall mining in that a cutting head slices coal from the lower section of the coal seam onto a conveyor belt [.]
Longwall mining is a form of underground coal mining where a long wall of coal is mined in a single slice (typically – m (2 ft 0 in–3 ft 3 in) thick). The longwall panel (the block of coal that is being mined) is typically 3–4 km (– mi) long and 250–400 m (820–1,310 ft) wide.

Both longwall systems are designed for longwall top coal caving (LTCC) in a coal seam with an average thickness of 25 meters (82 feet). is the leading supplier for the coal producing industry in Turkey with four out of five longwall underground mining systems in operation.
Today, the topcoal caving longwall mining is the major mining method for thick seam coal mining in China. In the Datong coal district, the annual production is million metric tons per panel. The topcoal caving longwall mining has attained outstanding achievements in coal mines with favorable conditions.
Longwall TopCoal Caving: A productive and efficient alternative. Longwall mining is one of the most productive ways to produce coal, but longwall mines have trouble efficiently mining seams higher than 6 m ( ft). Longwall TopCoal Caving can more than double the resource recovery rate of normal longwall equipment working in high seams.
One of the ways longwall mines achieve or exceed their owners'' expectations is through the use of highly efficient Longwall Top Coal Caving (LTCC) technology production, in combination with the extensive use of automation. LTCC remains a seldom used method for mining high seams efficiently and ecologically with sustainable use of deposits.
In longwall top coal caving (LTCC), fractures in the top coal are the most significant factors to consider when assessing top coal cavability. Fractures in the floor have an adverse impact on longwall mining practice and play a significant role in safe mining above confined aquifers.
2011 Underground Coal Operators'' Conference The AusIMM Illawarra Branch 10 – 11 February 2011 29 GEOTECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR LONGWALL TOP COAL CAVING AT AUSTAR COAL MINE Adrian Moodie1and James Anderson ABSTRACT: Austar Coal Mine has had a long association with difficult strata control conditions associated with depth of mining and a highly jointed/cleated coal .
The aim of this project was to provide the Australian underground coal mining industry with an up to date, state of the art summary of the Longwall Top Coal Caving (LTCC) mining system and its potential for application in Australia.
A 3D particlebased numerical approach to simulate the longwall top coal caving (LTCC) process was proposed, which for the first time the effect of continuous support advance and the faceend ...
May 14, 2019· The Broadmeadow mine was started using a longwall to extract coal at m (15 ft) leaving the top section of the seam to fall into the gob. The adjacent opencut mine has been mining the full seam section for more than 30 years, investigations and evaluations were made into the Top Coal Caving method and its suitability for the operation.
