摘要

Peabody Energy is the world's largest private sector coal company and a global leader in sustainable mining and clean coal solutions. The company serves metallurgical and thermal coal customers in more than 25 countries on six continents and has mining operations across Queensland and New South Wales. Peabody's Wambo Coal Mine is a longwall mining operation located in the Hunter Valley Region of NSW, Australia. Longwall mining activities are ongoing in the Wambo coal seam. Overlying a section of the underground operations (at the surface) is an alluvial channel that hosts an important water course for the area. Abandoned 'board and pillar' workings exist approximately half way between the Wambo seam and the surface. These workings (referred to as the 'Homestead workings') are within the Whybrow seam and when previously mining this area very poor ground conditions were experienced. Peabody identified a risk of sink holes forming, between the Homestead workings and the surface, during longwall extraction of the underlying section of the Wambo seam. The perceived sinkhole formation was recognised as having the potential to 'break' the surface aquifer, resulting in a significant environmental impact as well as jeopardising the safety and productivity of the longwall operations. This paper presents the design and implementation of a novel cost effective strategy for filling these workings. The old workings in the Whybrow seam, requiring fill, consisted of approximately 15 km of roadway, spread over an area of approximately three hectares, involving more than 100 boreholes. The most appropriate material available onsite was a natural alluvial soil. However, the variable nature of this material presented a number of challenges Furthermore, the fill material was to be exposed to a unique set of loading conditions. This paper details test work and analysis strategies employed to ensure that the fill requirements were satisfied. The results are then converted into a flexible framework that facilitates cost effective filling, while ensuring that the design requirements are maintained for the range of different fill source materials. Finally, this paper describes the implementation of the fill solution, presenting useful data collected during the operation and highlighting aspects of the project that worked well and those that posed additional challenges.
