PROJECT: Coal Mine Regional and Local Strata Control – China
Geohart Consultants was commissioned by the Safety in Mines Testing and Research Station (a division of the Department of Employment Economic Development and Innovation) to conduct a review of the regional and local strata control of the Xuandong Coal Mine in China, as part of the joint Australia-China Mine Safety Demonstration Project.
The Xuandong project is one of Australia’s key contributions to the Coal Mine Health and Safety Project under the Asia-Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate. The Asia-Pacific Partnership brings together Australia, Canada, China, India, Japan, Republic of Korea and the United States to address climate change, energy security and air pollution in a way that encourages economic development and reduces poverty.
The company is involved in a range of geotechnical projects and see opportunities for the mining industry in minimising ground control costs which still is a major issue in the rehabilitation schedule for coal mine roadways and intersections.
