深部金属矿山卸荷开采与预处理技术综述

    Review of destressing mining and preconditioning techniques in deep metal mines

    • 摘要: 随着金属矿山开采深度的持续增加,复杂工程、水文地质状况、高原岩应力及强扰动相互叠加,使得岩爆与矿震等动力灾害风险成为威胁矿山开采安全的核心要素之一,而合理且行之有效的动力灾害风险处置手段,无疑是降低深部金属矿开采安全风险的关键所在。本文系统综述了深部金属矿山卸荷开采与预处理技术的理论机制、实践应用及发展趋势,旨在为深部开采动力灾害防控提供理论支撑与技术参考。研究结果表明,岩爆作为深部开采典型灾害,其本质源于岩体应变能的突然释放,为应对上述挑战,卸荷与预处理技术通过形成破碎区域、转移应力能量,逐渐成为处治岩爆和矿震等动力灾害风险的有效战术措施,其中,加拿大深井硬岩矿山利用多种卸荷预处理技术降低了岩爆发生频率和严重程度,提升了安全性与经济效益,美国矿山采用特定采矿法控制地压、降低岩爆风险、提高生产能力,同时,水压致裂预处理技术可让岩体产生裂隙形成“减压区”改善应力,还能通过相关参数计算破裂压力。然而,现有技术仍存在卸荷参数难以普适化、应力转移可能诱发次生灾害、水压致裂成本高等局限性,未来研究需围绕多技术协同、智能监测系统开发及基础理论深化展开,以实现深部矿山安全高效开采。本文通过国内外典型案例分析,明确了卸荷与预处理技术的适用场景与优化方向,为我国未来深部金属矿开采中必然面临的动力灾害风险防控提供了参考和借鉴。

       

      Abstract: With the continuous increase in the mining depth of metal mines, the complex engineering, hydrogeological conditions, high in-situ rock stress, and strong disturbances are superimposed on each other, making the risks of dynamic disasters such as rockbursts and mine earthquakes one of the core factors threatening the safety of mine mining. Reasonable and effective measures to deal with the risks of dynamic disasters are undoubtedly the key to reducing the safety risks of deep metal mine mining. This paper systematically reviews the theoretical mechanisms, practical applications, and development trends of destressing mining and preconditioning techniques in deep metal mines, aiming to provide theoretical support and technical references for the prevention and control of dynamic disasters in deep mining. The research shows that rockburst, as a typical disaster in deep mining, essentially stems from the sudden release of strain energy in rock masses. To address the above challenges, destressing and preconditioning techniques have gradually become effective tactical measures for dealing with the risks of dynamic disasters such as rockbursts and mine earthquakes by forming fractured zones and transferring stress and energy. Among them, deep hard-rock mines in Canada have used a variety of destressing and preconditioning techniques to reduce the frequency and severity of rockbursts, enhancing safety and economic benefits. Mines in the United States have adopted specific mining methods to control ground pressure, reduce rockburst risks, and improve production capacity. At the same time, the hydraulic fracturing preconditioning technique can cause rock masses to generate fractures and form a “decompression zone” to improve stress conditions, and the fracture pressure can also be calculated through relevant parameters. However, the existing technologies still have limitations such as the difficulty in universalizing destressing parameters, the potential for stress transfer to trigger secondary disasters, and the high cost of hydraulic fracturing. Future research needs to focus on the collaboration of multiple technologies, the development of intelligent monitoring systems, and the deepening of basic theories to achieve safe and efficient mining in deep mines. Through the analysis of typical cases at home and abroad, this paper clarifies the applicable scenarios and optimization directions of destressing and preconditioning techniques, providing references for the prevention and control of dynamic disaster risks that China will inevitably face in future deep metal mining.
