Longwall mining - Wikipedia
Longwall mining is a form of underground coal mining where a long wall of coal is mined in a single slice (typically 0.6–6.0 m (2 ft 0 in – 19 ft 8 in) thick). The section of rock that is being mined, known as the longwall panel, is typically 3–4 km (1.9–2.5 mi) long, but can be up to 7.5 km (4.7 mi) long and 250–400 m (820–1,310 ft ...
Longwall Mining - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Longwall mining is a fast and mechanized method of coal mining where a large “wall” of coal is mined with a high-powered cutting system and the coal is transported out of the mine through a network of conveyors. The method is a “caving” method and the surface above the “gob” or mined areas typically subside.

Longwalls Lead the Way Underground - Coal Age
2020年2月10日 · Overall U.S. longwall production shrunk in 2019. Collectively, this group of 34 underground coal operations produced more than 162.7 million tons, which was about 5.9 million (3.5%) less than last year. In a year where the U.S. saw total coal production drop by 50 million tons (6.6%), this was an expected outcome.

Longwall Mining Overview | Introduction - underground COAL
Overview. In the method of secondary extraction known as longwall mining a relatively long mining face (typically in the range 100 to 300m but may be longer) is created by driving a roadway at right angles between two roadways that form the sides of the longwall block, with one rib of this new roadway forming the longwall face.
