3.5 Coal quality work in detailed exploration stage
Find out in detail the characteristics of coal types and coal quality of mineable coal
seam, and their changes within the pre-mined area. According to the requirements of
development and construction, focus on studying the coal quality characteristics and
process performance related to the mining, washing, processing, sales, environmental
protection, utilization, etc. of the coal; and make corresponding evaluation. The
sampling types, quantities, and test items can refer to Appendix A, and Tables A.1, A.2,
and A.3.
4.2.2 The coal sample of coal core is generally taken as full-layer sample based on the
independent coal seam. When the coal quality is significantly different and the layer
thickness is greater than 0.5m, then take the stratified coal sample. When sampling
from the coal seam with complex structures, it shall be taken separately according to
the gangue and coal stratification.
4.2.3 The gangue larger than 0.01m to the minimum mineable thickness of coal seam
shall be sampled separately. For the gangue greater than the minimum mineable
thickness of coal seam, if it belongs to non-carbonaceous mudstones, it shall not be
sampled; if it belongs to carbonaceous mudstones or soft rocks, it shall be sampled
separately. The gangue with thickness less than or equal to 0.01m, it shall be sampled
together with the connected coal layer rather than be removed. The gangue of multiple
thin coal seam can be sampled separately, or combined with the same lithology to be
sampled.
4.2.4 When the false top and false bottom of the coal seam are carbonaceous
mudstones, full-layer samples shall be taken separately. If it belongs to the non-
carbonaceous mudstone, the layer thickness is greater than 0.1m, take sample of 0.1m;
if the layer thickness is less than 0.1m, all shall be sampled.
4.2.5 The coal sample of coal core needs to be sampled according to different coal
seams without shrinkage. When the coal seam thickness is large, it shall be sampled
in sections. The section thickness is generally no greater than 3.0m; the interval of
steeply inclined coal seams can be appropriately relaxed.
4.2.6 When taking out the coal core from the borehole to the end of the sampling, it
shall not exceed 8h for lignite, not exceed 24h for bituminous coal, and not exceed 48h
for anthracite. The mass of the coal sample of coal core shall be at least 1.5kg. If
special items of test are required, the number of samples can be determined according
to the test requirements.
4.3 Coal sample for testing washability
4.3.1 The coal sample for testing washability can be divided into two types including
size and float-sink test coal sample (also known as production sample), and coal
sample for testing washability of coal core coal sample (also known as simple sample).
4.3.2 The size and float-sink test coal sample shall be taken in the production mines
or exploration tunnels with a mass of no less than 10t. The sampling points shall be
arranged below the oxidized zone and in areas with normal coal seam thickness,
structure, and coal quality. Detailed geological records shall be made near the
sampling points. The coal sample shall include the mined gangues and naturally mixed
false top and false bottom vermiculite. Except where stratified sampling is required,
full-layer sampling is generally adopted. When taking all the coal from the coal seam
roof and floor in the sampling laneway, if the amount of mined coal is too large, it can
of the sample groove; calculate its volume. Use the same method to calculate the
volume of gangue (if the gangue shape is irregular, immerse it into the water to
measure its volume) with thickness greater than 0.05m. Accurately measure the mass
of all coal samples in the dry-air state; shrink a sample to determine the moisture, ash,
true density and apparent density, etc. Two volume and mass coal samples with similar
specifications shall be taken from the same sampling point; their measurement results
difference shall be no greater than 0.05t/m3. It the above value is exceeded, take a
third sample.
4.4.3 When taking full-moisture coal sample int eh tunnel, select the fresh coal surfaces
with no water dropping and normal temperature to take according to the requirements;
or use the size and float-sink coal sample and production coal sample to shrink by
quarter method. Place the coal sample with particle size less than 13mm and mass no
less than 2kg into ground-mouth sample bottle (the sample volume shall not exceed
3/4 of the volume of the coal sample bottle). The coal sample shrinkage, shipping into
bottle must be finished as quickly as possible in the sampling location, then
immediately sealed by the black tape, sealed by wax after transferring into the room.
Wipe the container surface, weigh it accurately (use a tray balance with sensitivity of
0.1g); label it properly; send it to the laboratory within 5d.
4.5 Coal sample of coal rock
4.5.1 For the coal sample of coal rock that reflects normal coal quality, its sampling
points shall avoid the abnormal zones such as fracture zone, wind-oxidization zone,
magmatite contact zone, spontaneous combustion metamorphic zone, etc. The coal
sample of coal rock with special research purposes needs to be taken at specific
location.
4.5.2 When sampling, the following contents shall be described in detail, such as coal
seam structure of the sampling point, physical properties of coal, macro coal type, top
and bottom lithology, nearby structural characteristics.
4.5.3 The coal sample of coal rock can be divided into mixed coal sample, columnar
coal sample, and lump coal sample. The mixed coal sample can be shrunk from coal
sample of coal seam, coal sample of coal core, and coal sample of washability. The
columnar coal sample can be taken from the trenches and tunnels; the well-structured
columnar coal core can be used as the columnar coal rock sample. When the coal
quality is hard, the continuous lump coal samples can be used instead of columnar
coal sample. If the coal core and coal seam in the tunnel are not suitable for taking the
columnar coal sample, discontinuous lump coal can be picked as coal sample of coal
rock.

conveyor, etc.); lithology of false top, false bottom and gangue; thickness; mixing
condition of waste rock and whether there are people to pick them by hand, etc.
5.3 Storage of coal sample
The exploration organization generally does not keep the retained samples. The
following coal samples, such as coal sample of coal seam, coal sample of coal core,
coal sample of coal rock, coal sample of spore and pollen, etc., shall be kept by the
testing organization for analysis samples (or briquettes). The testing organization shall
take certain measures to prevent the oxidization of the coal samples. The storage time
is generally half a year since the date of test results are reported, namely, after the
quality review of test item involved in the sample is completed. If there is agreed
storage time, it shall be abided by.
