Annual Review of Selected Mining Research Activities on the Bureau of Mines
The Bureau's safety R and D program is aimed at providing solutions to problems in all facets of mining. Some of these include fire prevention, suppression, and extinguishment in mines; reduction of explosion hazards through improved personnel safety procedures; degasification and control techniques in high, permeable coalbeds; improved ventilation systems to dilute methane in working areas; roof and rib control to provide inherently safe operating environments; electrical and mechanical improvement relative to safety; underground illumination; emergency communication; refuge chamber installation; emergency hoisting procedures; and techniques for mine sealing following a disaster. Presently the Bureau is engaged in over 200 coal and noncoal safety peojects. (ERA citation 03:009663)
