The longwall machine's mine the coal in horizontal, "panels" that are 800 to 1,500 feet wide and 2 to 3 miles long. In longwall mines as the temporary support protecting the miners is advanced, the roof in the minedout area behind it collapse causing cracks and rock movement that reaches to the land surface hundreds of feet above.

In methane seams, methane flows into the longwall face in two ways (Szlązak et al., 2005). It may be a direct inflow from the coal of the mined seam in each phase of the mining process (mainly, during mining and transportation of excavated material), and from the exposed solid coal of a longwall panel in the zone of operating pressure.

Principle of advancing longwall. Advancing longwalls were once common in Europe in relatively thin seams where packs were constructed using stone, which had to be cut in order to produce sufficient height for the gate roads, and sometimes using coal fines which were not very marketable at one time. Usually a pillar of coal referred to as a ...

Longwall mining is a highly productive underground coal mining technique. Longwall mining machines consist of multiple coal shearers mounted on a series of selfadvancing hydraulic ceiling supports. The entire process is mechanized. Longwall mining machines are about 800 feet (240 meters) in width and 5 to 10 feet ( to 3 meters) tall.

Highwall mining is an adaptation of auger mining. Instead of an auger hole, an entry into the coal seam is made by a continuous miner, remotely operated from a cabin at the surface. The cut coal is transported by conveyors behind the miner to the outside. Using a television camera, the operator can see and control the miner's progress.
