| description | This study is aimed at detecting small faults in coal seams. With coal seams of different buried depths in Luling Coal Mine, Yuenan Coal Mine, and Sihe Coal Mine with obvious difference in hardness and outburst hazards selected as the research objects, the morphological characteristics of a sample particle size such as the Rosin-Rammler distribution function, average particle size, cumulative mass distribution, and mechanical parameters such as particle strength and F value were statistically analyzed through drill cuttings related to sampling points at different positions of faults already known. The results show that the effect of tectonic stress reduces the strength and permeability of the coal after the borehole enters the fault damage zone, resulting in abnormal fluctuations in the morphological characteristics of the drill cuttings. Correspondingly, large-size particles account for a high percentage. The weight analysis discloses that the characteristic particle size of the Rosin-Rammler distribution function has the greatest influence on the determination of fault existence. The analysis of drill cutting characteristics conduces to detecting the distribution of small faults, helps to improve the utilization of mine information, and is of great significance for accident prevention and control. |
