When employing room and pillar mining methods it is an obligativity that the superposed pillars
to be perfectly co-axialls in vertical section.
3. MINING METHODS FOR INTER-ROOM PILLARS
Within the scope of exploitation of inter-room pillars, the following methods can be put in
practice:
the method with sublevels and dry stowing (figure 5);
the method with storage and ore evacuation through funnels (figure 6).
The technical and production parameters obtained by applying the two above-mentionned
methods are synthetised in table 4.
