Roadway backfill method to prevent geohazards induced by room and pillar mining: a case study in Changxing coal mine, China

Coal mines in the western areas of China experience low mining rates and induce many geohazards when using the room and pillar mining method. In this research, we proposed a roadway backfill method during longwall mining to target these problems. We tested the mechanical properties of the backfill m...
