It's a combination of both longwall retreating and bord and pillar (B&P) mining which is operated for the extraction of standing coal pillars developed in bord and pillar mining layout. The extraction of such pillars is with the help of PSLW equipment, similar to long wall retreating method.
عرض المزيدPillar extraction, (also referred to as retreat mining; pillar recovery; stooping; pillar robbing; and bord and pillar second workings) is the practice of forming a series of pillars and then partially or totally extracting some or all of the pillars, usually with mining operations retreating out of a panel. There are a number of basic pillar …
