An auger machine, such as a mining machine, embodying features that reduce the cost of mining. The machine embodies jacks and skids which permit ready maneuverability of the machine adjacent the wall containing the seam to be mined, and has a cross conveyor for conducting away mined material from the auger string, which cross conveyor is located …
auger mining. Auger mining is a suitable method for extracting coal reserves at the boundary walls and is operated without stripping the overburden. In this case, pillar stability is an important aspect to study. In this study an analysis of the pillars stability formed between the opening holes using the empirical method is used to determine
To safely and efficiently recover trapped coal under final endwalls in open cut mines, theoretical analysis and numerical calculation were used to study the stability of web pillar during auger ...

Auger Mining. Auger mining is a surface mining technique used to extract coal, minerals, and other materials from shallow, horizontal deposits, typically up to 100 feet (30 meters) deep. This method is employed when the material is too close to the surface to be economically extracted using traditional underground mining methods.
