Longwall coal mines prove that longwall mining is considered to be the best coal mining pr actice due to vast recovery of coal ove r other forms of underground as well as open cast mining methods
Longwall top coal caving LTCC is a special type of longwall mining applicable to very thick seams greater than 4 5m where good quality coal is being left because conventional longwall equipment has not yet been designed to operate successfully beyond around 5m mining height It enables an increased recovery for only an incremental additional cost
The method employs both coal cutting of the lower portion of the coal seam accompanied by caving and reclamation of the top coal Coal is first cut from the longwall face using a conventional shearer and AFC arrangement working under hydraulic face supports that incorporate a rear coal conveyor and cantilever flipper arrangement
A brief description of longwall top coal caving LTCC is included at the end of the Longwall section of the Fundamentals of Coal Mining module of this web site Despite the fact that there are numerous coal seams in Australia which are thick enough for LTCC to be used to increase recoveries potentially at a reduced costtonne there has been little application of the process to date
