Practice and study of coal exploration method in deep coverage area: In ShangZhe coalfield case

With exhausting of shallow coal resources, exploration and development of coal in deep coverage area became the reluctant choice. But, it is very difficult for coal exploration in deep. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis of multi-source information and study on mineralization pattern should be carried out before exploration. During exploration, firstly carries out two-dimensional seismic survey, then analyze various ore-forming elements based on the coal floor contour, finally the drilling and 'trilateral' timely follow-up. On the study of exploration method, the next principle should be followed:modern coal-forming theory as a guide, geological research as basis, advanced technology as a means, from surface to deep, from known to unknown, gradual and orderly conducting every process of exploration. According to a series of information obtained, a series of ore-forming elements should be comprehensively analyzed, then the preparation of report on exploration achievements.
