Summary:
Baotou Mines includes the Adaohai Mine and Shuiquan Opencast Mine.
Adaohai Coal Mine, located in Inner Mongolia, is a typical mine for mining steeply inclined extra-thick coal seam. Mining method: sublevel caving mining.
The capacity of Adaohai Coal Mine is 900,000 t/a, and the development mode is multi-level development of central parallel inclined shaft. The mine adopts two-wing mining, one mining area is arranged in the east and the West, and “1 mining, 2 excavation and 2 preparation” is adopted to organize production and achieve production. The ventilation mode of the mine is subarea ventilation, the ventilation method is extraction ventilation, the ventilation of the coal mining face is full air pressure ventilation, the air is imported from the South Lane of the working face, and the dirty air is returned to the return air lane of the mining area.
CU2 coal seam is the main mining coal seam, the thickness of coal seam is 22 - 35 m, the average thickness is 28 m, seam dip is 80° - 90°.
