HISTORY AND GENERAL
INFORMATION OF THE MINE
1.1 MINE
Moonidih Underground Project is situated in the South-central part of Jharia Coalfield.

This mine was designed in early 1960’s by Polish Consultants under a Technical
Collaboration for horizon mining system to produce coking coal from seams XVIII to
XV bottom up to a depth of 500 m for a production capacity of 2.1 MTY. This mine
has achieved the production level of 1.2 MTY. This Project was opened in 1967 by
two vertical shafts. The infrastructural facilities for production are fully developed
including pit head washery. The present annual production of the mine is about 0.23
MT in the year 2020-2021. Total Production comes from Two Development District
and one Longwall in XVI (TOP) seam with the Deployment of two Roadheader
machines and one set of PSLW. It is being planned to increase production through XV
seam development deploying two Bolter Miner machines and four Roadheader
machines to reach a target of 0.45 million tonne in the year 2021-22.

1.3.3 Faults
Based on the available borehole data and colliery workings, 19 no. of faults of various
type such as dip, oblique, curvilinear, underground etc. with varying degree of throw
ranging upto as high as 190 m have been interpreted to have affected the seams under
consideration as detailed vide Table No. 2.4.1. In addition, numerous minor faults have
been encountered in the workings of XVIII, XVII Top and XVI Top seams; the
concentration having been observed more in the anticlinal axial region in the
central/south eastern part of the area specially in the vicinity of major faults. Further,
the
possibility of existence of additional minor faults cannot be ruled out in the virgin area.
The dip of the fault is, in general, 60 degrees.

1.3.5 Strike & Dip

The general strike of the formations is found to be NW-SE in the major part of the area
lying south of fault F2-F2, swinging to north and NE-SW on the northern part of fault
F2-F2. An anticlinal fold axis is interpreted to run along NNW-SSE.
The area exhibits a gentle anticlinal structure & the dip varies from 7 to 15 degree.
1.3.6 Igneous Intrusive
Invariably all coal seams under consideration have been affected by igneous intrusive
in the form of dykes and sills to varied extent. The coal seams have been pyrolitised
and converted to Jhama as a result of these intrusive. The dykes are generally narrow
and have a shorter linear extent and have affected coal seams less in comparison to
sills. Few dykes (2 to 3 m thick) have been met in the workings of XVI Top seam. The
sills (Mica-peridotite) occur randomly within the coal seams and their effect on coal
seams is very erratic. As such, it is extremely difficult to precisely delineate the Jhama
zone. The Jhama and part Jhama zone (C + J zone) have been shown in the seam folio
plan. In virgin area these lines have been drawn on the basis of boreholes data and they
are interpretative and may be dealt with caution. However, in developed area
occurrences of Coal – Jhama have been taken into consideration. Like small faults, the
encountering of dykes and devolatised zones also create problems in mechanized
mining. Devolatised zones also cannot be proved conclusively by surface drilling. The
in-seam seismic survey and magnetic survey however, may give some advance
information about occurrences. The BMCL has carried out in-seam seismic survey in
a panel of XVI Top seam and indicated the existence of a discontinuity on the basis of
data so obtained. During the course of development of this seam, a dyke of 2 m
thickness (approx.) was encountered at the predicted position. Disposition of Jhama in
the short schematic borehole section has been shown in the respective seam Folio
plans.
In Moonidih, majority of the burning is due to effect of sills, it is difficult to precisely
delineate the burnt zone and any prediction of burning pattern shall be conjectural. The
details of seam-wise burning are mentioned as follows:
XVIII Seam
This seam is the top most seam considered in the Moonidih Block. This seam has
undergone extensive pyrolitisation in the entire area except in South-eastern part and
in a small patch in Northern part.
XVII Top Seam

This seam has undergone pyrolitisation in Southern part of the area.
7
XVII Bottom Seam
This seam appears to be largely free from pyrolitisation except in a very small patch in
North-western part.
XVI Top Seam

This seam has undergone extensive pyrolitisation and major part of Southern area has
been pyrolitised. The northern and western part of the area appears to be free from
pyrolitisation. Few small dykes (2 to 3 m thick) have been encountered in the project
workings.
XVI Bot./XVI Comb. Seam

XVI Bot/XVI Comb. Seam has undergone pyrolitisation in Northern, South- Western
part of the area. The XVI Bot seam has also undergone pyrolitisation in the Northern,
Southern & South-eastern part of its area of occurrence.
XV Top Seam
This seam appears to be free from pyrolitisation in the entire area.
XV Bot / XV Comb. Seam

The XV Bot. Seam appears to be free from burning except in a small eastern patch.
However, the XV Comb. Seam has undergone pyrolitisation in eastern part.

1.3.9 Gassiness
The gassiness of the seam proposed to be worked at Moonidih Underground Project

(XVIII to XV) is degree – III.
(“Gassy seam of degree – III “means a coal seam or part thereof lying within the
precincts of a mine not being an opencast working in which the rate of emission of
inflammable gas per tonne of coal produced exceeds ten cubic metres).
Methane gas blowers have been encountered at various places while working XVIII,
XVII Top, XVII Bot., XVI Top and XVI Comb. Seam at Moonidih Underground
Project.
1.3.10 Incubation Period
The incubation period for coal seams at Moonidih Project varies from 9 to 10 months.
1.3.11 Geological Reserves
The net Geological Reserve of coal seams in XVI Top, XVI Bottom & XVI Combined
at Moonidih Underground mine is 42.69 million tonnes and in XV(T) & XV (B) Seam
111 million tones. The specific gravity of coal has been calculated on the basis of the
following equation to estimate the geological reserve: -
Specific Gravity = 1.28 + 0.01 X Ash %

1.3.13 Water Regime
1.3.14 Hydrology
The surface area of Moonidih Project has a gently undulating topography. The
topography of the area has changed considerably due to subsidence of the surface
caused by large scale mining operation carried out in the area. The maximum elevation
10
observed in the area is 202 m above Mean Sea Level in the northern part where as the
minimum elevation observed is 148 m above Mean Sea Level in the South-eastern part
of the project area. The General Slope of the area is towards South and West.
The average annual rainfall varies from 1197 mm to 1380 mm with maximum
precipitation in the months of June to September.
The drainage pattern in the area is controlled by easterly flowing Damodar river which
forms the southern boundary of the Moonidih block and southerly flowing Jarian Nalla
which forms the western boundary of the Moonidih block. A large number of ponds
with different weirs, divergent gradient and vary low drainage density are indicative
of structural disturbance which occurs in the immediate vicinity of the area.
1.3.15 Hydro-geology
The area is covered by alluvium which is product of barren measures rock. Some dug
wells are situated in the top alluvial portion. The ground water occurs under water table
or phreatic and confined to semi-confined conditions in the area. The phreatic or water
table aquifer is confined to weathered and partially weathered sandstone and
intercalations and extends to a depth of 10 m to 20m below ground level from the
surface. The water level is around 0.60 m below ground level during immediate post-
monsoon period where as it goes down as low as 9 m below ground level during pre-
monsoon period. During drilling operation of borehole No. MNH – 1, the water level
recorded was 200m below ground level i.e., there was total water loss. It has been
observed that with the increase of depth, hydraulic head of the aquifer stands below
200m ground level. Initially heavy eruption of water was encountered in 3A dip (1.12
m3/min having 42.2oC Temp) of XVI top seam. Later on, during development of gate
roads in F2 & F3 panel in XVI Comb. Seam, heavy eruption of water was encountered
resulting in decrease in water eruption in 3A dip of XVI top seam.
Previously, an aquifer had been encountered in XVI top seam while developing bottom
gate of D-9 panel where initial water eruption rate was 0.68 m3/min having 51oC temp.
which has decreased to 0.23 m3/min at present.
The make of water below ground at Moonidih Underground Project, measured in Sept.’96,
was 4.1 m3/min.
High temperatures are recorded in the water found in the mine working. The water
which is likely to be found in Moonidih workings is likely to develop a stabilized
temperature of 38 oC to 40 oC.
1.3.16 Physico-Mechanical Properties
One borehole MGE-1 was drilled upto XVII Top seam in the southern part of the mine
area for determining the physico-mechanical parameters of rocks. The results of these
tests are available with CMPDI, RI-II in the form of a separate book. However, a part
of this i.e., about 10m above and about 10m below XVIII seam and about 8 m above
& about 5m below (Limit of borehole MGE-1) XVII Top seam is being given vide

Caving System with Powered Support Longwall (PSLW) Set and XV seam by bolter
miner shuttle car combination. This project has been opened by two shafts namely
Shaft No. 1 (depth 543.5 m) and Shaft no. 2 (depth – 560.7 m) each of 7.5 m finished
diameter & situated 80 m apart. This project was originally planned for a capacity of
2.1 MTY. However, the maximum production achieved by this mine till date is 1.2
MTY. One air shaft has been sunk of dimension 6.5 m dia. & 430 m depth and two
inclines of length 2045 m and 2037 m have been completed in XV seam.
1.4.2 Mining Block
Moonidih Underground Project covers an area of 14.6 Sq.km. (Which includes

Moonidih, Jarma and parts of Singra blocks) located in the south-central part of Jharia
coalfield. In addition, adjoining Singra Underground block having an area of about 4.9
Sq. km. may be annexed with Moonidih after exploration.
1.4.3 Land Acquisition Status
The Land required for surface infrastructure at Moonidih Underground Project has
already been acquired.
1.4.4 Present Status of PSLW Sets, Road Headers and Bolter miner
section

17
Presently two Roadheaders are deployed in XVI (T) Seam, one set of PSLW and in
XV Seam. 02 Nos. Bolter Miners, four Roadheaders with 04 Nos. shuttle cars are
deployed for development of XV Seam.
1.4.6 Exploitation Status of Coal Seams
The status of exploitation of different seams at Moonidih Underground Project is as

follows:
XVIII Seam
Approach to this seam is through 3 Nos. of drifts from XVII Top seam on 400 m
horizon. This seam is being worked in-seam on Longwall retreating with caving system
by ML-IV PSLW set with ‘A’ series of panels in eastern side. Seven (7) panels namely
A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4, A-5, A-7, A-8, A-6 and A-6a have been extracted.
XVII Top Seam
Approach to this seam is through 280 m and 400 m horizon (220 m horizon is sealed).
At present coal extraction in this seam has been discontinued. This seam has been
worked in-seam through 400 m horizon between 400 m and 500 m depth on Longwall
retreating with caving system by ML-III PSLW set with ‘B’ series of panels in western
side upto B-32 Panel. Eastern side is virgin. It is to be worked after working overlying
XVIII seam which is already under extraction. The coal was transported by series of
belt conveyors upto 1200 tonne strata bunker and then through skip from 400 m
horizon to surface via Shaft No. 2.
XVII Bot. Seam
The entry to this seam is through 280 m horizon. Two panels, namely, C-1 & C-2 were
extracted in this seam between 280 m and 400 m depth by Longwall retreating with
caving by ML-VI PSLW set which was equipped with plough. The extraction in XVII
Bot. Seam was discontinued after Oct. ’94 as its extraction was considered
uneconomical because of its low thickness and poorer grade.
XVI Top Seam
Entry to this seam is through 400 m horizon and 500 m horizon. This seam is being
worked at present beyond 500 m depth. D-11 (A) is under extraction , D-16 and D-17
is under development.
XVI Bot. Seam
Entry to this seam is through 400 m horizon and 500 M. horizon. Three Longwall
retreating with caving panels were worked between 280 m and 400 m depth with ‘E’
series of panels by ML-VI PSLW set. At present, this set is idle. There is no further
18
use of this set at Moonidih. Only development galleries are being driven for approach
to west side. Only dewatering is being done from that portion of mine.
XVI Comb. Seam
Entry to this seam is through 400 m and 500 m horizons. This seam has been worked
on Longwall retreating with caving system by ML-VII PSLW set with ‘F’ series of
panels. Four panels namely F-1, F-2, F-3A and F-3B have been worked in this seam
with PSLW set ML-VII. Coal extraction in this seam was discontinued due to unsafe
working of PSLW set ML-VII because of its design defect. Panels F-4, F-5, F-6 Panels
have been extracted with ML-V PSLW set.
XV Top, XV Bot. & XV Comb. Seam
Development of trunk roadways using bolter miner and shuttle car combination is
under process.
XV seam Inclines
Two numbers of incline drivage are completed in which INCLINE NO. 1 is advanced
up to 2045m and INCLINE NO. 2 is advanced up to 2037 m completed and reached to
XV SEAM.

2.2 Underground Transport

2.2.1 Coal Transport
Transport Circuit of XVI Top/Bot./Comb. Seams
Conveyor circuit of XVI Top seam transports coal from D/E/F-series of Longwall
panels and related development faces.
At present the coal from development faces are transported through a series of belt
conveyors to feed the coal to strata bunker of 1200 Te capacity between XVII Top
seam and 400 m horizon near Shaft No. 2. A drift belt conveyor of length 380 m,
gradient 1 in 5 and 1000 tph capacity feeds the coal from XVI Top seam to the top of
strata bunker at XVII Top seam. From the bunker it is loaded into skip through skip
measuring pocket for transport to surface. Apart from this a 300 Tonnes capacity strata
bunker has constructed in the above said drift for coal evacuation by mine car and cage
from 400m horizon. A new bunker of capacity 200 Te has also been developed for
handling the extracted coal from D-11 (A) panel and also from D-16 and D-17 panels
in future.

shall be free from:
3. Stresses likely to cause impending failure of the roof and sides in the gate roads,
Longwall face and the powered supports.
4. Overhangs likely to cause failure at the face and the powered supports; and
5. Loose caved muck immediately lying over the shields of the support likely to cause
sudden run down or flushing of muck in to the area being used for salvaging operations
at the face.
6. Health of the leg circuits, control valves, bleed valves including power pack shall be
ensured to be kept in good operating conditions which shall be kept maintained during
the whole salvaging operations.
i) Leg pressure and convergence shall be measured and recorded in a bound paged
book in every shift in order to monitor the impending strata pressure and
conditions thereof.
ii) In case of abnormal increase in the leg pressure or convergence at the face,
persons shall be withdrawn to safer place for safety. Further redeployment of
persons at the Longwall face shall not be done till the pressure and convergence
have ceased to increase and conditions normalized for safe operations thereat as
decided by the Manager of the mine in writing.
2. PREPARATORY WORK BEFORE STARTING SALVAGING OPERATION
2.1) Shale band existing immediately above the coal seam shall be cut along with the coal
in order to ensure stable sandstone roof at the short wall face.
2.2) Once the Short wall face reaches 8m behind the pre-determined final stoppage
position, full column grouted roof bolts of length not less than 1.5m shall be installed in the
roof at and interval not exceeding 1m along the face, immediately after every cut of the
Shearer. The distance between the two adjacent rows of roof bolts shall not exceed 1.0m.
2.3) Wire-mesh shall also be set tight against the roof along with the bolts in order to
prevent any rock piece from falling onto the persons working thereat.
167
2.4) i) A space of width not more than 2.4m all along the short wall face shall be created
by cutting coal and advancing AFC with the help of hydraulic rams or props without

kept supported in the manner described at 2.2.
2.5) i) A cross gallery of width not exceeding 4.8m and height not more than 3.0m shall
be made in the barrier pillar (chain pillar) between extracted panel & next gate roadway
exactly in alignment of the Short wall face (extracted panel).
ii) The centre lines of the cross gallery and the 2.4m space provided between the coal face
and the chock shields shall be marked in the roof by making precision survey.
iii) Haulage track shall be properly laid up to loading station, in the cross gallery and in
haulage roadway of the next panel to facilitate smooth transportation of the supports and
other materials there from.

RISK MANAGEMENT ASSESSMENT
AND CONTROL
231
Establishing a common vocabulary
i) Risk Management - The systematic application of management policies,
procedures and practices to the task of establishing the context, identifying,
analyzing, evaluating, treating, monitoring and communicating risk. (As/NZS
ISO 31000).
ii) Hazard - Hazard is a source of potential harm or a situation with a potential
to cause loss.
iii) Risk - It is the chance of something happening that will have an impact
on objectives (AS 4360). Risk is measured in the terms of consequence and
likelihood.
iv) Risk = Consequences x Probability
v) Consequence - The outcome of an event being damage or injury.
vi) Likelihood - Probability or frequency of the event occurring.
The Process of Risk Management
1. Establishing context -This means to clearly define the particular task, issue or
situation and underlying hazards that one is trying to resolve as a part of risk
management activities. By doing so the risk assessment team understands what the
issue is, where the issue is located and what specifically will be covered.
2. Hazard Identification -This is the first and the most important step of Risk
management process. Hazards are best identified by variety of techniques that may
include – Consultation with mine worker, Inspections, Accident & incident report,
manufacturer booklet, safety audits, checklists etc.
3. Risk Analysis -Analyzing risk is the process of adding meaning to the identified
hazards i.e., what loss event could be associated with the identified hazard.
232
4. Evaluating Risk- This is done to provide an estimate of resultant risk, in terms of
consequences and likelihood. Most commonly Risk Grid Matrix is used to provide a
qualitative measure of the risk magnitude.
5. Treating Risk- For this Hierarchy of controls is used to identify where we are
putting our effort for controlling risk. The elimination being most effective and PPE &
action reliable on human behavior are least effective.
1) ELIMINATE (remove the hazard or the need to perform the hazard or the need to
perform the hazardous activity all together). 100 % Effective.
2) SUBSTITUTE (hazardous substance, process, equipment, work method for safer
alternative). 75 % Effective.
3) ENGINEERING/ISOLATION (redesign, enclose, or isolate/separate people from the
hazard by use of lockout system or use of barriers/distance/time). 50% Effective.
4) ADMINISTRATIVE (Training, Rules, Procedures, Safe System or work). 20-30%
Effective.
5) PPE (Includes eye/ face/ skin/ foot/ head/ respiratory/ hearing/ fall protection/ and
contingencies such as firefighting equipment). 5% Effective.
6) SAFE BEHAVIOUR (Situational Awareness/ Alertness and Compliance with rules,
procedures and instructions).
7) REVIEW (Once the control measures have been implemented it is important to review
them as soon as they have implemented and periodically to verify their effectiveness).
8) COMMUNICATION (It is the key to ensure that the hazard identification and risk
management is fully effective).

CONCLUSION
There is no end of measures to be taken regarding safety of Man and Mine. Time to
Time many regulations rules, act were formulated to minimize, control or prevent
accident. But nothing was found sufficient. Moreover, day by day the technology and
method of working/mining is changing. Global mining companies are participating in
different activities of Mining. The present rules and regulations are not in harmony with
the present technology. So, there is always a need to change or amend the rules and
regulations for the new technology and methods of Mining. But changing/ amendment of
rules, regulations are lengthy and time-consuming process.
To ease the above problem a new concept was evolved to make its own safety
standard which should be site specific and time specific. This concept led us to prepare a
safety Management plan which is the best suited for the prevailing condition of Moonidih
Project. This Safety Management Plan is prepared considering all the facts like
mechanization, present and future technology, past experience, advice of our own
experienced technical persons, present statutory provisions, DGMS Permission, Code of
Practice etc.
Each job is divided in many activities to analyze the danger associated with it and
to specify the safety measure along with responsibility at each level. This is a first step
towards the new era of Safety. This Safety Management Plan will be reviewed and
modified on regular basis. There is need to aware all the people working in the mine and
ensure that the person who has awarded responsibility to comply the safety provision are
conversant with their responsibility.
To make Safety management Plan successful a close and proper Monitoring is

required to evaluate its effectiveness. Hopefully this Safety Management Plan will be able
to enhance the standard of safety at the utmost.
