China has completed the construction of 1,651 intelligent mining working faces in 758 coal mines so far, according to a conference held on January 13.
Among the first batch of coal mines listed as intelligent construction demonstrations, 47 coal mines had achieved the expected demonstration effect.
The conference released 11 major progresses in intelligent construction of coal mines in 2023. Unmanned intelligent mining of thin coal seams and intelligent mining of super-long working faces in medium-thick coal seams have achieved an output of over 10 million tonnes per annum.
It marked that the intelligent construction of coal mines played increasingly obvious role in reducing coal miners, ensuring working safety and improving production efficiency.
Zhang Xiaodong, director of Coal Department of the National Energy Administration (NEA) said that the NEA attached great importance to the intelligent construction of coal mines and would make continuous contributions to the high-quality development of the intelligent construction.
