Non-explosive mining and waste utilization for achieving green mining in underground hard rock mine in China

Innovations of mining technologies were proposed by beneficial utilizations of unfavorable factors such as high geostress,high geotemperature and high mining depth to achieve green mining as mining depth increases inevitably.Cuttability of deep hard rock was investigated by experimental and regressed analyses to find the reasonable stress adjustment method to improve non-explosive mechanized fragmentation for hard ore-rock.A non-explosive mechanized and intellectualized mining method was proposed to continuously and precisely exploit phosphate underground,which promoted the high-recovery,low-waste and high-efficiency exploitation of phosphate with recovery rate over 90%,dilution rate near 5%and cutting efficiency about 107.7 t/h.A circular economy model and the backfill system were proposed to conduct resource utilizations of solid waste,by which the utilization amount of waste increased year after year.In 2018,the utilization amounts of phosphogypsum,yellow phosphorus slag and waste rock increased to 1853.6×10^3 t/a,291.1×10^3 t/a and 1493.8×10^3 t/a,respectively.

Analyses and predictions of rock cuttabilities under different confining stresses and rock properties based on rock indentation tests by conical pick

The rock indentation tests by a conical pick were conducted to investigate the rock cuttability correlated to confining stress conditions and rock strength.Based on the test results,the regression analyses,support vector machine(SVM)and generalized regression neural network(GRNN)were used to find the relationship among rock cuttability,uniaxial confining stress applied to rock,uniaxial compressive strength(UCS)and tensile strength of rock material.It was found that the regression and SVM-based models can accurately reflect the variation law of rock cuttability,which presented decreases followed by increases with the increase in uniaxial confining stress and the negative correlation to UCS and tensile strength of rock material.Based on prediction models for revealing the optimal stress condition and determining the cutting parameters,the axial boom roadheader with many conical picks mounted was satisfactorily utilized to perform rock cutting in hard phosphate rock around pillar.

Spalling fracture mechanism of granite subjected to dynamic tensile loading

Rocks are likely to undergo spalling failure under dynamic loading.The fracture development and rock failure behaviours were investigated during dynamic tensile loading.Tests were conducted with a split-Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB)in four different impact loading conditions.Thin sections near failure surfaces were also made to evaluate the growth patterns of fractures observed by polarizing microscope.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM)was used to observe mineral grains on failure surfaces and to evaluate their response to loading and failure.The results indicate that the number of spalling cracks increases with increase in peak impact loads and that quartz sustains abundant intergranular fracturing.Cleavage planes and their direction relative to loading play a vital role in rock strength and fracturing.Separation along cleavage planes perpendicular to loading without the movement of micaceous minerals parallel to loading appears to be unique to the rock spalling process.

Construction of reasonable pillar group for undersea mining in metal mine

In order to achieve the safe mining in Sanshandao Gold Mine,five schemes of secure pillar group are designed.Using the method of the renormalization group,the failure mechanism of the pillar group is explored,and the safety factor of the pillar system is also obtained.The displacement characteristics,stress-strain laws,distribution of plastic zone and damage range of different pillar group are analyzed using numerical calculation software FLAC3D.To determine a reasonable pillar group scheme,the pillar stability and roof deformation are utilized to evaluate the safety of the pillar group.In addition,the theory of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation is adopted to verify the optimal scheme.The pillar group with the lowest roof deformation value is chosen as the optimal plan,which renders a factor of safety of 2.06 for the pillar group.According to this scheme,pillars with the width of 10 m are set along the strike of undersea deposit with the interval of 50 m.Rib pillars of 15 m in width are set at the location of the exploration line of 127,151 and 167.The analysis can be used to provide guidance for optimal design of pillar structures in undersea mining.

Onodera's Prognostic Nutritional Index is a novel and useful prognostic marker for gastrointestinal stromal tumors

BACKGROUND Immunoinflammatory markers such as the peripheral blood neutrophil-tolymphocyte ratio(NLR)and the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)have gained considerable attention as prognostic markers in gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs).AIM To assess the prognostic value of Onodera’s Prognostic Nutritional Index(OPNI)for GISTs.METHODS All patients who had undergone surgical resection for a primary,localized GIST from 2009 to 2016 at our cancer center were initially and retrospectively identified.Recurrence-free survival(RFS)was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log-rank test.We used multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models to identify associations with outcome variables.RESULTS A total of 235 GISTs were identified and included for analysis under our inclusion criteria.Univariate and multivariate analyses both identified the OPNI as an independent prognostic marker,and the OPNI was associated with the primary site,tumor size,mitotic index,tumor rupture,necrosis,and modified NIH risk classification.Low OPNI(<51.30;hazard ratio=5.852;95% confidence interval:1.072–31.964;P=0.0414)was associated with worse RFS.The 2-and 5-year RFS rates of the patients with a low OPNI were 92.83% and 76.22%,respectively,whereas 100% and 98.41% were achieved by the patients with a high OPNI.CONCLUSION The preoperative OPNI is a novel and useful prognostic marker for GISTs.

Field application of non-blasting mechanized mining using high-frequency impact hammer in deep hard rock mine

A non-blasting mechanized mining experiment was carried out with a high-frequency impact hammer,and the daily mining performance was recorded to explore the applicability of the high-frequency impact hammer in deep hard rock mines.Before the field application,the scope of the excavation damage zone was monitored,and rock samples were obtained from the ore body to be mined to carry out a series of laboratory experiments.Field application results show that the overall excavation efficiency reaches 50.6 t/h,and the efficiency of pillar excavation after excavating stress relief slot reaches 158.2 t/h.The results indicate that the non-blasting mechanized mining using high-frequency impact hammer has a good application in deep hard rock mines,and the stress relief slot is conducive to mechanical excavation.In addition,the high-frequency impact hammer also exhibits the advantages of high utilization rate of labor hours,small lumpiness of spalling ore,little dust,and little excavation damage.Finally,according to the field application and laboratory experiment results,a non-blasting mechanized mining method for hard rock mines based on high-frequency impact hammer is proposed.

Dislocation neutralizing in a self-organized array of dislocation and anti-dislocation

A one-dimensional(1 D) self-organized array composed of dislocation and anti-dislocation is analytically investigated in the frame of Peierls theory. From the exact solution of the Peierls equation, it is found that there exists strong neutralizing effect that makes the Burgers vector of each individual dislocation in the equilibrium array smaller than that of an isolated dislocation. This neutralizing effect is not negligible even though dislocations are well separated. For example, when the distance between the dislocation and the anti-dislocation is as large as ten times of the dislocation width, the actual Burgers vector is only about 80% of an isolated dislocation. The neutralizing effect originates physically from the power-law asymptotic behavior that enables two dislocations interfere even though they are well separated.

Core structure and Peierls stress of the 90°dislocation and the 60°dislocation in aluminum investigated by the fully discrete Peierls model

The core structure,Peierls stress and core energy,etc.are comprehensively investigated for the 90°dislocation and the 60°dislocation in metal aluminum using the fully discrete Peierls model,and in particular thermal effects are included for temperature range 0≤T≤900 K.For the 90°dislocation,the core clearly dissociates into two partial dislocations with the separating distance D~12?,and the Peierls stress is very smallσp<1 k Pa.The nearly vanishing Peierls stress results from the large characteristic width and a small step length of the 90°dislocation.The 60°dislocation dissociates into 30°and 90°partial dislocations with the separating distance D~11A.The Peierls stress of the 60°dislocation grows up from1 MPa to 2 MPa as the temperature increases from 0 K to 900 K.Temperature influence on the core structures is weak for both the 90°dislocation and the 60°dislocation.The core structures theoretically predicted at T=0 K are also confirmed by the first principle simulations.
