Abstract:
The intelligent development of coal mines is a crucial way to achieve the safe, efficient, green, and low-carbon transformation of the coal industry and to reach the “double carbon” target, which is related to the life and health of miners, the stable development of enterprises and the national energy reform. As directly affected subjects, the cooperative attitudes of miners in different emotional states have a significant impact on the smooth implementation of intelligent coal mine renovation projects. Hence, we combined the RDEU theory and game theory, constructed a three-party evolutionary game model of the small and medium-sized energy enterprises (SMEE), the government, and the miner, considered the influence of the strategies made by the miner on the equilibrium strategy choices of other game subjects in the intelligent coal mine construction under the rational and irrational emotional states of the miner, and finally used MATLAB 2021 to simulate and analyze the impact of the evolution of the gaming system from 3 key elements: initial participation rate, construction costs, and government support. The study found the following: (1) The government will insist on actively promoting intelligent coal mine construction regardless of the miner’s emotional state. (2) Both moderate pessimism and optimism will, to a certain extent, give a positive impetus to the development of intelligent coal mine construction. (3) The miner’s emotions have a greater impact on SMEE than on the government’s strategic behavior. (4) Excessive construction costs or low government support will make SMEE may reduce the enthusiasm of SMEE to carry out an intelligent construction of coal mines. Accordingly, corresponding suggestions and countermeasures are put forward, aiming to provide targeted and practical ideas for the efficient construction of intelligent coal mines in China, thereby accelerating the green and low-carbon transformation of energy.

Abstract:
The task of ensuring worker safety in underground coal mines has never been simple. It has always been challenging to ensure worker safety in underground coal mines. Coal miners are seriously injured or killed as a result of numerous fatal and non-fatal accidents all over the world. Accidents occur as a result of lack of monitoring of mining areas and failure to implement proper safety measures. In this review, the coal miner's smart wearable safety device is implemented. A smart wearable safety device that will monitor the miner's health and provides precautionary measures for the miner's safety has been developed with the advent of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Integrating smart wearable safety devices with various health sensors such as a pulse rate sensor, temperature sensor, blood oxygen sensor, gas sensor, and camera, and then connecting it to Node MCU, and the internet enhances the safety of coal miners. Sensors constantly transmit sensor data to the cloud, and if an unusual situation arises, it notifies the responsible person in the control room as well as the miners. Since deep underground mining is especially susceptible to toxic gases, low levels of oxygen, and hazardous gases, the MQ gas sensor family can detect them. The proposed system is primarily used to improve working conditions inside coal mines and to ensure workers' safety.

Abstract:
Coal mining is a hazardous profession in India that exposes workers to a range of health risks, including respiratory diseases, skin disorders, hearing loss, and injuries. The coal miner's day, observed on May 4th every year, commemorates the hard work and sacrifices of coal miners. The mines act, 1952, and its associated regulations mandate the provision of medical facilities, safety and health measures, and rescue stations and trained personnel for the rescue of workers. The coal mines (Conservation and development) act, 1974, mandates the conservation of coal resources and the development of coal mines while ensuring the safety and health of workers. However, the implementation of these laws has been inadequate in many cases, leading to a high prevalence of occupational diseases among coal miners. The lack of proper implementation of safety and health regulations has been identified as a key factor contributing to the high prevalence of occupational diseases. Additionally, the existing regulations do not address the specific safety and health issues associated with the use of automation and robotics in mining. To safeguard the health and safety of coal miners, more efforts are needed to ensure the effective implementation of these laws and to provide adequate medical support and rehabilitation services. Prioritizing the health and well-being of coal miners can pay tribute to their contribution to society while promoting a safer and healthier workplace for all.

Abstract:
This paper analyzes the management system of safety partnership in coal mining enterprises through the methods of evolutionary game and optimized behavioral propagation of SEIR, considering the miners’ benefits and losses, as well as the influencing factors from miners and enterprises. It is found that, under the influence of the management system of safety partnership within miners, after the evolutionary game between miner partners, the behavioral strategies and personal benefits of the two miners are both consistent. Moreover, the benefits of individual miner and overall benefits of two miner partners, will affect the miners’ choice of safe behavioral strategies, as a result of which, the coal mines could improve the miners’ benefits through the management system of safety partnership to stimulate the implementation of miners’ safe behavior. Additionally, under the incentive of the management system of the safety partnership, the number of miners implementing unsafe behavior is decreasing, while the number of miners who are not easily affected by unsafe behavior is increasing. When the rewards and punishments of miners are strengthened, the propagation of miners’ safe behavior is accelerated. Finally, the propagation of miners’ safe behavior has a certain spillover effect within a certain range. The results of this paper provide a theoretical basis for the implementation of the management system of safety partnership in coal mining enterprises, which helps enterprises in guiding miners to take up safe behavior, which is better for enterprises’ safe development.

Abstract:
The unsafe behavior of miners seriously affects the safety of deep mining. A comprehensive evaluation of miners’ unsafe behavior in deep coal mines can prevent coal mine accidents. This study combines HFACS-CM, SEM, and SD models to evaluate miners’ unsafe behaviors in deep coal mining. First, the HFACS-CM model identifies the risk factors affecting miners’ unsafe behavior in deep coal mines. Second, SEM was used to analyze the interaction between risk factors and miners’ unsafe behavior. Finally, the SD model was used to simulate the sensitivity of each risk factor to miners’ unsafe behavior to explore the best prevention and control strategies for unsafe behavior. The results showed that (1) environmental factors, organizational influence, unsafe supervision, and unsafe state of miners are the four main risk factors affecting the unsafe behavior of miners in deep coal mines. Among them, the unsafe state of miners is the most critical risk factor. (2) Environmental factors, organizational influence, unsafe supervision, and the unsafe state of miners have both direct and indirect impacts on unsafe behaviors, and their immediate effects are far more significant than their indirect influence. (3) Environmental factors, organizational influence, and unsafe supervision positively impact miners’ unsafe behavior through the mediating effect of miners’ unsafe states. (4) Mental state, physiological state, business abilities, resource management, and organizational climate were the top five risk factors affecting miners’ unsafe behaviors. Taking measures to improve the adverse environmental factors, strengthening the organization’s supervision and management, and improving the unsafe state of miners can effectively reduce the risk of miners’ unsafe behavior in deep coal mines. This study provides a new idea and method for preventing and controlling the unsafe behavior of miners in deep coal mines.

Abstract:
Background: Studies have indicated that coal miners in China have higher levels of perceived job stress. However, few studies have investigated the work stress structure of coal miners. Objective: Our study focused on the work stress of coal miners in China, with a primary aim to determine the work stress structure of coal miners in China using a mixed-methods approach. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were performed with thirty-three people (team leaders and frontline coal miners) conducted with participants from various state-owned large- and medium-sized coal mines in China. Grounded theory was used to construct an initial model for the concept of coal miners’ work stress. Using the results of this initial survey and findings in the existing literature, we then constructed a preliminary questionnaire regarding coal miners’ work stress and administered the questionnaire to 900 coal miners in the Shaanxi, Henan, Inner Mongolia, and Gansu provinces. Results: The results show that the work stress structure for coal miners differs from that for other occupational types in China, due to differences in the Chinese culture and foreign cultural influences. We revised our questionnaire based on these considerations and administered a new survey to the frontline production workers in coal mines. The preliminary questionnaires were revised and analyzed through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, resulting in a final formal model for work stress, which was supported by content and structural validity. Conclusion: In this research, we used the framework of grounded theory to conduct an empirical analysis of the structure model of coal miners’ work stress. The findings support that the primary work stress factors of Chinese coal miners included the stress of the work environment, job responsibility, interpersonal relationships, career development, the family environment, and organizational systems. Coal enterprises should therefore always take these factors into consideration when developing and implementing safety management policies aimed at to improve the occupational health status of coal miners.

Abstract:
Pneumoconiosis of workers in brown coal mines is an occupational disease, a global public health problem and a serious disease of the lung parenchyma. If it is not prevented, it leads to irreversible changes in the lungs with complications. The disorder occurs after prolonged exposure to coal dust containing high concentration of free crystalline silica. Data in literature regarding its health impact on people working in coal mines are relatively scarce. Recently, there has been an increase in miners' pneumoconiosis, which requires a stricter policy to protect workers in the mines. There are two classical types of CWP: simple and complicated. The main diagnostic method of CWP is based on a specific X-ray finding, and the auxiliary method of choice is spirometry. The pathophysiological mechanism of CWP formation is not fully known, although it has been shown that damage to the lung parenchyma goes through three phases caused by effect of lung cells exposure to coal dust. Studies show that cytokines play an important role in inflammation and the immune response as mediators of toxic and pathogenic effects in CWP. A link between exposure to coal dust in brown coal mines and the development of CWP has also been demonstrated, with a consequent reduction in the physical and psychological quality of life of workers in the mines.

Abstract:
Fifty-one male coal miners between 18 and 65 years old (78% underground and 22% surface miners) completed a self-administered questionnaire. Population and food pattern characteristics were described. Food frequencies were used to obtain a food score which was a weighted average of the frequency of use each month for each food item as determined by the characteristics. Cluster analysis on the food scores were used to identify foods as core, secondary or peripheral foods. Core foods were foods consumed at least ten times in a 28 day period. The food frequencies were used to calculate an estimated daily dietary score for nine nutrients. These scores were compared with the U.S. Dietary Guidelines. Thirty-two percent of the miners had worked in the mines longer than 15 years, 80% had a family history of coal mining, 50% were between the ages of 18 and 35, 52% worked the eight a.m. to four p.m. shift, and 63% had an 11-12 grade education. Eating three times a day was the most frequent eating pattern. When food choices during non-work times were compared to choices when working, the kind and amount of food differed. Time of meals also differed. Analyses of variance indicated that the food scores were significantly different at the .05 level for the type of mining and for income levels; foods scores for education levels, work hours and age characteristics were significantly different at the 0.1 level. As a group, the miners had a high fat, sodium and protein intake, a medium total carbohydrate intake with a low fiber intake. In order for the miners to meet the U.S. Dietary Guidelines, nutrition educators may need to focus educational programs on the guidelines emphasizing a dietary increase in starch and fiber, a decrease in refined carbohydrate, a decrease in total fat, cholesterol, saturated fat and sodium.

Abstract:
In May 1981, at the South Wales Area NUM annual conference, Area president Emlyn Williams addressed the delegates and told them that the south Wales miners 'are associated in people's minds with resistance and struggles ... There is no doubt in my mind that miners have an historical mission to lead in class struggles'.1 This statement expressed the conscious self-image of the South Wales Area and was also a reaffirmation of an important historical trend. During the twentieth century the miners were generally considered to be amongst the most militant sections of the British labour movement, with South Wales very much in the forefront of this. This thesis examines both how and why the south Wales miners held this prominent 'vanguard' role. My research explores the history of the south Wales miners between 1964 and 1985, examining the interrelationship of coal, community and politics through the prism of their Union. The period covers the concerted run-down of the coal industry under the Wilson government, the growth of miners' resistance and the brief prospect of a secure future for them, through to eventual NUM defeat in 1985. In this socio- political history, the emphasis is on the dynamics of the relations between colliery lodges, the South Wales Area and the national NUM, the response of the Area to industrial and political developments, and also the impact of this upon its relationship with the wider labour movement. In many respects however, labour history is not currently 'fashionable'. The decline of the densely-unionised heavy industries, together with the global hegemony of neo-liberalism, has led many to believe that this subject is no longer relevant - even though the working class has not disappeared just because more people in Britain now work in call centres and supermarkets than in collieries or steelworks. Nevertheless, as Mcllroy and Campbell point out, '[t]he [current] debility of labour studies ... have to be related to the defeats and the consequent sense of demoralisation the labour movement has suffered from, as well as state policies and academic responses to them'.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The retention of the right skills in any organisation or industry is always a challenge. There are many causes of the skills shortage and it is also difficult to retain skilled people once they have been found. The literature suggests that retention of skills should ideally be considered from the design and expectation of the requirements of the job through to the recruitment process; and not only once the employee has started working. The literature also explores the different retention strategies that can be applied, such as succession planning, employee engagement, work – life balance, remuneration structuring and career advancement path. This research is limited to Tshikondeni coal mine and attempts to establish which of the following are the biggest contributing factors that cause people to leave and resign from the mine: • Known life of the mine left is till 2014; • Remote location away from essential services; • Leadership; and • Remuneration. From the research that was done, it became clear that the limited life of the mine was the biggest contributing factor that would make employees want to leave Tshikondeni coal mine. Further study is recommended for organisations that operate with finite resources, and mostly in remote areas, to develop further specific retention strategies – over and above those challenges that face all other industries and organisations. This should be done so that the reality of finite resources can be addressed in order to keep employees motivated and energised until the last ton is extracted.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Dit is altyd ‘n uitdaging in enige organisasie of industrie om die regte vaardighede te behou. Daar is baie redes vir die tekort aan vaardighede en dit is moeilik om bekwame mense te behou wanneer hulle wel gevind word. Die literatuur raai aan dat die retensie van vaardighede reeds in die ontwerp van en vereistes vir ‘n betrekking in ag geneem moet word, sowel as tydens die werwingsproses en nie eers na indiensneming van die werknemer nie. Die literatuur ondersoek ook retensie strategië wat toegepas kan word, soos bv. opvolgbeplanning, werknemerbetrokkenheid, balans tussen werk en vrye tyd, vergoedingstrukture en moontlikhede vir bevordering. Hierdie navorsing is beperk tot Tshikondeni steenkoolmyn en poog om vas te stel watter van die volgende die grootste bydraende faktore is waarom mense bedank en weggaan by die myn: • Lewensduur van die myn slegs tot 2014; • Afgesonderde ligging weg van essensële dienste; • Leierskap; en • Vergoeding. Uit die navorsing wat gedoen is, het dit duidelik geword dat die beperkte lewensduur van die myn die grootste bydraende faktor was waarom werknemers wou weggaan van Tshikondeni steenkoolmyn. Verdere navorsing word aanbeveel vir organisasies wat met beperkte hulpbronne, en hoofsaaklik in afgeleë gebiede, werk om verdere spesifieke retensie strategieë te ontwikkel – bo en behalwe dié wat vir ander industrieë en organisasies geld. Hierdeur kan die realiteit van beperkte hulpbronne aangespreek word om sodoende die motivering en aansporing van werknemers te verseker totdat die laaste ton verwerk is.

Abstract:
The North East of England experienced its greatest period of economic growth during the period 1830-1915. This economic prosper .- ity was closely related to coal mining, with a corresponding increase in the number of coal miners who had to be accommodated near the collieries. This explains the large number of colliery cottages constructed, and their location often in previously uninhabited areas. This thesis seeks to establish the seminal plan form of the Colliery Cottage of the Great Northern Coalfield, to trace .its development, to examine the social context and analyse the settlement pattern. Part One sets the scene for the study with a historical background of the Great Northern Coalfield, identifying the demographic profile of the community and examining its main characteristics: economic, social, historical and health. Part Two is concerned with the colliery cottage itself and presents a catalogue of cottage types. Drawn from a wide variety of sources, selected examples of different categories of colliery cottage have been recorded to a standard format. An analysis of the drawings gives a comprehensive picture of origin and development of this building type which holds a special place in the history of the North East.Part Three looks at detail design: the fabric of the colliery cottage, the materials, construction methods and the interior. Part Four describes the colliery villages. Using Ordnance survey maps as the main reference point, the various settlement patterns have been traced from agricultural origins: the square, the row and the grid pattern of the Bye Law street through to the socalled enlightened plan which emerged towards the end of the study period. The development cost of the settlement and its financial organisation are also considered. The thesis by its very nature is a synthesis of a range of knowledge fields:historical, technical, aesthetic and social. The approach in this case has been from a broad perspective and with knowledge of miners' cottages in other areas. It is hoped that in this way a complete picture of the colliery cottage within its historical context has emerged.

Abstract:
In underground coal mines, miners face the hazard of being struck or pinned by a piece of mobile mining machinery. Proximity detection systems have been developed and are used by the industry to protect miners around these machines by detecting the presence of the miners and automatically issuing warnings or disabling machine motion when a miner is in potentially dangerous proximity. These systems were originally developed for continuous mining machines, slow-moving machines that move on bulldozer-style tracks, and are now mandated by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) to be used on continuous mining machines. These systems are now being adapted to other underground vehicles, such as shuttle cars, scoops, and battery haulers — vehicles that move on rubber tires at much higher speeds. There are concerns that the detection range of these systems may not provide for an adequate stopping distance on these faster moving machines. To address these concerns, researchers have developed a dynamic modeling system to determine the stopping distance of mobile underground coal equipment. This model can be used in conjunction with worker escapability data and/or information on interaction with other vehicles to provide insight into whether or not proximity detection systems will be adequate for the underground mining workplace. This paper details the background, development, and operation of the resulting application software, focusing on the utility of the graphical user interface to visualize the generated data. The refined data developed by this process can then be utilized by mine operators and proximity detection system manufacturers to more accurately determine the detection range needed to provide effective protection for miners working in an underground mining environment.

In ASME 2017 International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition. American Society of Mechanical Engineers, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1115/imece2017-70714.

Full text
Abstract:
From 2000–2015, thirty-two fatalities occurred due to collisions involving mobile equipment in underground coal mining in the United States. Studies have shown that proximity detection systems (PDS) can be a potential mitigation strategy for this type of accident. However, the effectiveness of this approach for mobile equipment has yet to be fully studied or validated. Researchers at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) evaluated the causal factors of this type of fatality. Fatal accident reports from the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) accident report database provided details to analyze and determine causal factors and to evaluate whether a PDS may have been a preventive factor in each accident. NIOSH researchers concluded that PDSs used in underground coal mines on mobile equipment which are designed to detect a miner, provide warning to the operator and other miners, and automatically stop the machine before a miner is hit may have helped to prevent 25 of the 32 or 78% of the accidents.

Full text
Abstract:
Mineral resources of Baffin Island include iron (Mary River), diamonds, carbonate-hosted zinc and lead (Nanisivik), nickel, copper, platinum group elements, uranium, thorium, gemstones (sapphire, spinel, lapis lazuli), carving stone, and coal. Iron deposits include the Mary River No. 1 to 4 deposits of northern Baffin Island, which came into production in 2015 and contain 586 Mt grading 66% Fe. The Mesoproterozoic Borden Basin hosts the Nanisivik deposit, mined between 1976 and 2002; this is a Mississippi Valley-type deposit and contains 9.0% Zn, 0.7% Pb, and 41 ppm Ag. Diamond-rich kimberlite occurs as sheets and small pipes at Chidliak on Hall Peninsula; largest by area is the CH-1 (6 ha) pipe. At least 32 carving-stone localities are known; 7 communities on Baffin Island have good access to quarried material. Coal occurs in the Cretaceous-Paleogene Eclipse Trough of Bylot and northwestern Baffin islands. Exposures near Pond Inlet have been excavated for local use.

Mintz, K. J. The explosibility of three canadian coal dusts. Natural Resources Canada/CMSS/Information Management, 1989. http://dx.doi.org/10.4095/331786.

Full text
Abstract:
Explosibility measurements on coal dusts from the Cape Breton Development Corporation's Lingan Mine, TransAlta's Highvale Mine and the Quintette Mine in B.C. have been carried out along with some tests on Pittsburgh Standard coal dust. The Quintette coal dust would not explode in the classical Hartmann apparatus, but did explode in the new 20-L vessel using a more powerful ignition source. The minimum explosible concentrations of the Lingan, Highvale and Pittsburgh coal dusts were all about the same (40 - 45 mg/L), that of the Quintette was higher (140 mg/L). The difference may be attributed to the much greater mean particle size of the Quintette dust. The explosion pressures (in kPa) were: Highvale, 600, Pittsburgh, 520, Lingan, 510, and Quintette, 440. The minimum oxygen concentrations required for explosions were (in % oxygen): Highvale 10.4, Lingan 10.5, and Quintette 14. The minimum ignition temperatures of dust clouds were (in °C): Highvale 510, Lingan 600, Quintette 620 and Pittsburgh 620. Further work is required to reconcile limit values.

Full text
Abstract:
The shallow aquifer in the Fox Creek area is hosted by the Paleocene Paskapoo Formation. The formation consists of fluvial deposits with channel-filled high-energy sandstone cutting through fine-grained, low energy overbank sediments. Three internal members are recognized, these members define three hydrostratigraphic units (two aquifers versus one aquitard). In fall 2022, three boreholes were drilled and cored. The succession is slightly dominated by sandstone with subordinate fine-grained sediments and thin coal intervals. The calcareous to non-calcareous sandstone is either tight and well compacted or porous, friable to unconsolidated. The litharenite is composed of quartz, various types of rock fragments, chert, and feldspars. Detrital carbonates can be abundant. The post-sedimentation history of the sandstone recorded cementation and dissolution events from near surface, through shallow burial and late tectonic exhumation. The events include early clay coatings on grains, dissolution of metastable minerals, cementation from calcite, kaolinite and minor chlorite and late near surface fault-controlled freshwater circulation and dissolution. The late event resulted in friable to unconsolidated sandstone intervals.
