In 2021, 60% of the country's coal was produced in the western United States, but only 28% of workers in the coal mining industry worked there, based on data from our Annual Coal difference is related to the technologies used in the East and West; surface mines in the West can use massive mining equipment to extract large amounts of coal with relatively fewer workers.

Please give me a detailed explanation answer. An overburden of shale will be removed using 200mm holes and 12m benches. Dry rock conditions are anticipated, and the decision is to use bulk ANFO with emulsion cartridges as a primer. The density of compacted ANFO is g/cm3, and the PF (powder factor) is expected to be not less than kg/m3.

Higher powder factor causes oversize and lower powder factor results in crushed rock. Mean fragment size was plotted against the powder factor for 91 blasts of coal overlying overburden benches, as presented in Fig. 22. The general trend shows that, with increase in powder factor, the mean fragment size decreases.

The results are plotted graphically and are shown in : Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rock vs Powder factor (PF) It is evident from the figure 7 that the powder factor is increases as the uniaxial compressive strength of rock is increases. Increase in UCS means rock mass is strong which requires more explosive energy to break.
