Coal is the vital source of energy in world and is a burnable brownish black or black sedimentary rock contemporary in the rock strata in form of layers; thickness of layers may vary. It is available in all over the world in large quantities and can be extracted to be utilized as energyproducing source to fulfill the energy demand. There are two modes of mining: (a) surface or open pit mining ...

Most roof bolts used in coal mines comprise a solid steel bar although wooden rods have also been used for some particular situations. The steel bar, generally 5/8 in ( ram) in diameter, has either a smooth surface or a deformed appearance such as rebar or screwed thread. At the anchoring end of the bolt, the bar either has a formed slot to ...

• Coal has been mined in the United States for more than 200 years. Most of today's mines are in coal reserves that had previously been avoided because of poor roof conditions. These mines are frequently deeper and may have abandoned mines above and/or below them which often exert additional stress on the roof and ribs.
