The over-all objective of the program was to determine, by laboratory experiments, the kinetics and the mechanics of the various reactions which produce acid in coal mine drainage. Secondary objectives included identification of the role of bacterial catalysts, evaluation of methods to inhibit pyrite weathering, and laboratory application of a new method of weathering inhibition.

The COALSTAR Project, which operated from November 1981 to December 1982, was a research and development project aimed at providing a reliable and inexpensive means of monitoring various waste site conditions via the GOES satellite system. The GOES system provides data transfer from unattended isolated sites where neither power nor telephone lines exist. The reliability and resolution of the data received while using the satellite link were excellent; however, the site instrumentation gave considerable trouble. The disastrous failure of a large coal waste embankment in 1972 led the Bureau of Mines to undertake a comprehensive program to reduce the likelihood of such an occurence again. Part of this program involved...

The results of a program to demonstrate the technical feasibility of hydraulic borehole coal mining are presented in this report. The hydraulic borehole method of coal mining involves inserting a hydraulic mining device into a borehole that has been drilled from the surface into the underground coal bed. The borehole mining device issues a jet of water under high pressure, which breaks the coal. These pieces of coal, along with the water, form a slurry, which flows to the base of the borehole where it is pumped to the surface. Phase I of the program encompassed the design, fabrication and factory -testing of a hydraulic borehole mining device. The program was successfully completed with the field tests being conducted...

This report summarizes the results of the contract. Included are summaries of existing legislation pertaining to outcrop barriers and a state -of -the -art survey of outcrop barrier designs and related mine closure techniques. Six sites were inspected in the field and are presented as case histories. The data analysis presented includes a computer modeled seepage analysis, an overburden blow -out analysis, and a wedge stability analysis. The results of these analyses are interpreted to form recommendations for coal outcrop barriers which will minimize seepage and the potential for failure. Supplementary support and reinforcement alternatives are also discussed.
The Bureau of Mines inventoried all lands in Alaska to determine the availability of land for oil, gas, and coal leasing. Acreage for onshore oil, gas, and coal basins was digitized as was land ownership data. Regulatory policy concerning oil, gas, and coal leasing for various government agencies and private concerns was determined. Oil and gas basins underlie 79.4 million acres of Alaska's 378 million acre landbase. Federal agencies manage 44 million of these acres. The Bureau of Land Management is the lead agency for most oil and gas leasing on Federal lands. Lands have to be specifically opened for oil and gas leasing to be available. The State of Alaska manages 21.1 million acres underlain by these basins. More...

This U.S. Bureau of Mines publication presents salient information in abstract form on 247 coal deposits in Alaska. Coverage includes currently producing deposits and deposits that appear to have commercial production potential. Data are taken from coal properties identified by the U.S. Bureau of Mines minerals availability program and by a literature search. Infrastructural and institutional factors affecting coal development in Alaska are also discussed. Meyer, M.P., 1990, Selected coal deposits in Alaska: U.S. Bureau of Mines Open-File Report 33-90, 399 p., 1 sheet.
