Description
Summary:As the depth of mining increases, attention to the preservation of mine workings and mining blasting is steadily growing. Technological methods of effective mineral development are often limited by dynamic blasting impact causing short-period fluctuations in the rock mass. Therefore, correct explosion impact identification, to a great extent, determines effective mining trends. Some results of researches for minimum blasting impact on mining workings are given in the article. Calculation of safe distances and excess pressure at shock air impact of technological explosions on the Magnezitovaya mine personnel was made. The calculation was made for the 15.5 m mine working section, with two conditions of the total section of the mine workings adjacent to the face of 15.5 m and 31 m with distances of 50 m and 100 m. Overpressure was also calculated for a total cross-section of 15.5 m and distances of 150 and 200 m. It was determined that the safe distance for people under overpressure conditions at the shock air wave front, depending on breaking schemes, is in the range of 150-200 m. The urgency of this research is to ensure industrial safety of underground mining operations.
