Application of BLSS-PE Mine 3D Laser Scanning Measurement System in Stability Analysis of a Uranium Mine Goaf

Accurate understanding of the three-dimensional (3d) morphology of a complex goaf and its relative displacement in space is a precondition to further analyzing the stability of the cavity. in this study, to make an accurate stability analysis of the goaf, laser detection and numerical simulation are used to study the interior space form of goaf and the change characteristics of stress and displacement in goaf. The results of the study show that the BLSS-PE mining 3d laser system as a field detection tool can detect the morphology of the cavity more comprehensively and improve the accuracy of the detection data to a certain extent. Combined with the numerical simulation software analysis, it can be seen that the maximum principal stress in the 818-2# goaf increases after excavation. in addition, the maximum value appears in the top and bottom plates of the goaf, and the minimum stress remains nearly unchanged. The tensile stress appears in the upper and lower plates but is lower than the surrounding rock. The maximum horizontal and vertical displacements of the 818-2# goaf are small. The plastic zone appears in the surrounding rock of the goaf as the mining work progresses, but the area is small. it is concluded that the goaf is relatively stable overall. The research results may provide a strong reference for ground pressure management in mines and comprehensive control of goaves.
