Abstract

The article presents the impact of geological and mining factors on the stability of room excavations in the Legnica-Głogów Copper District (LGOM) in Poland. In underground mining, the primary task of bolting of mining excavations is to ensure their stability as an essential condition of work safety. Appreciating the role and importance of the rock bolting in Polish ore mining; rock bolt load sensors were designed, manufactured and tested under laboratory conditions. The purpose of the research was to characterize the sensors and determine the elastic range of the bearing plate, which are an integral part of the sensor. The sensors have been verified in industrial conditions. The tests were carried out in the underground copper ore mine in Poland. Three rooms in the exploitation field were selected for testing, where exploitation was carried out at a depth of 809–820 m below the ground surface with the application of room and pillar with roof deflection and maintaining the central part of the field. The exploitation field included 60 rooms and pillars. The effectiveness of the mechanical load sensor of the expansion rock bolt support has been experimentally confirmed. Based on mine research, it was found that the largest increases in the load of the rock bolting, vertical stress and convergence occur in the middle of the mining field.
