The Zapadno-Donbasskaya mine ( Ukrainian: Zakhidno-Donbaska mine ) is a coal mining enterprise in the city of Ternovka, Dnipropetrovsk Region ( Ukraine ), and since 2013 it has been part of the Ternovskoye Mine Administration of PJSC DTEK Pavlogradugolgol ( DTEK ).
Mine "West Donbass" was put into operation in 1979. The largest mine in the Western Donbass, a giant mine.
During its existence, the name of the mine changed several times: Mine "West Donbass 16/17", during commissioning - Mine "them. Lenin Komsomol of Ukraine. "
In 2009, 1530 thousand tons of coal were mined. The length of the underground workings is 72.6 / 88.4 km (1990-1999).
Number of employees: 3027/3394 people, including 2325/2224 underground people (1990-1999).
The mine field is opened by two vertical centrally twin trunks. The Zapadno-Donbasskaya mine develops reserves of a mine field under difficult mining and geological conditions (great depth, intense rock swelling, high gas abundance, aggressive mine water) caused by weak host rocks (mudstones, siltstones with a strength of 12-15 MPa, prone to soaking ) The depth of the work is 480-585 m. Recently, adjacent formations have been practiced with 10 , with 8 in , with 8 n with a thickness of 0.6-1.0 m. The distance between them is 3-6 m, the angle of occurrence is 2-5 °. The mine is super-categorical for gas (methane) and is dangerous by explosions of coal dust.
The number of active working faces is 6/3, preparatory - 6/9 (1990-1999). In coal mining mechanized complexes KD-80 are used.
In the future, development of the c10 formation, opening and preparation of the c8n and c6n layers of the western wing is provided.
Strong, viscous coals with resistance to cutting of 240-420 kN / m.
Coal methane hazard ranges from 8 to 14 m³ / t.s.b.m., the gas content of the host rocks reaches 2 m³ / t.
The Zapadno-Donbasskaya mine is classified as a super-category mine in methane, and in terms of coal dust explosiveness it is dangerous. The relative gas mobility of the mine is 25.7 m³ / t, absolute - 32.51 m³ / min.
Relative methane mobility of the mine will be: in 2001 - 27.9 m³ / t, in 2004 - 27.2 m³ / t, in 2018 - 29.0 m³ / t.
