This annual series of books includes scientific papers on mining profiles. This volume presents multiple aspects of mining technology implementation in several aspects: extraction of coal iron manganese uranium and other ores. Capturing and utilization of coalbed methane by various methods including alternative ones safety measures in mining ecological aspects etc. Specific attention is paid to intensification of mineral resources extraction processes by way of modernizing opening methods development and mining methods depending on mining-geological conditions. Experimental results of stress-strain state rock massif forecast by means of computational experiments using recursive methods are also discussed. Any mining operations should finally result in adequate recovery of land surface and utilization of mining wastes using various environmentally friendly methods thus sufficient attention is paid to this scientific trend. Non-traditional methods of minerals mining are becoming more topical and of higher demand in the modern society. Hence several papers/chapters are devoted to underground coal gasification and its subsequent processes. In addition extraction technologies of gas hydrate as a source of an abundant amount of natural gas are thoroughly examined in this book including implementation of gas hydrate technologies for mine methane utilizations with its following transportation in a solid state. Furthermore attention is given to evaluation of economic efficiency of minerals mining by the proposed methods their ways of enrichment ecological aspects and the influence of mining production on the environment innovational logistic solutions at mining enterprises and also to perspectives of Ukraine’s mining industry integration to the European standards. | New Developments in Mining Engineering 2015 Theoretical and Practical Solutions of Mineral Resources Mining
