The objective of proximate analysis indicates the percentage by weight of the Fixed Carbon, Volatiles, Ash, and Moisture Content in coal. The amounts of fixed carbon and volatile combustible matter directly contribute to the heating value of coal.
Mining is classified by the method needed to reach the coal seam. When the coal is found close to the Earth's crust and taking away the overlying layers of material is not too expensive, surface mining is used to remove the top layers of materials and expose the coal.If coal is found in layers far from the surface, underground mining is the preferred technique.Vertical or slanted holes (shafts) are cut down to the mining area underground for ventilation for the workers and for transporting the miners, equipment, and coal.ining is classified by the method needed to reach the coal seam.
