Abstract:Geothermal gradient of Toyoha Mine, which produces Lead-Zinc ore minerals with some silver content, is 20-30 degrees centigrade per 100 meters, and highest rock temperature reaches more than 150 degrees centigrade in the working area. In this situation, countermeasure for hot conditions should be required seriously. In addition to the big diameter long hole drilling for the return air shaft and the cool water spray at the face, thermal environmental analysis has been applied. This paper summarizes the results … Show more
