This paper presents a development of a “smart center” for studying particulate matter (PM) and other gaseous emissions pollution in a surface coal mine located in the Jharia coalfield of Jharkhand, India, utilizing internet of things (IOT)-based capabilities and low-cost sensors data. These pollutants in the air in and around surface mines present...

Slope failures in surface mining environments present substantial hazards to human safety, infrastructure, and operational continuity. Accurate and timely prediction of such events is essential for effective risk mitigation and early warning. This study introduces a fully automated framework that integrates real-time detection of the onset of criti...
Methane emissions from coal mining remain a significant environmental challenge in the European Union, particularly in the context of climate change commitments and the ongoing transformation of the energy sector. This article analyses methane emissions from surface and underground coal mining, distinguishing between emissions from mining activitie...
This study integrates data analysis and machine learning techniques to investigate workplace injury prediction and mitigation in surface mining operations. Injury data (from March 2023 to Aug 2024) was collected from mechanised limestone mines in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, encompassing 446 workers' demographic details, health data and workplace conditio...
Monitoring land use/cover changes (LUCCs) in mining areas is vital for evaluating the environmental impact of mining operations and assessing the effectiveness of land reclamation works. Mining activities directly influence the surrounding environment, shaping the social and economic development of the region in which they occur. The present resear...
In order to alleviate the risk of landslides on high and steep slopes during excavation, slope protection coal pillars are commonly increased at the site to maintain slope stability, which causes a considerable waste of coal. In roof cutting for pressure relief at quarries, the movement of the overburden structure is artificially regulated by blast...
