Fracture-seepage characteristic zones of the overburden of extra-thick coal seams: Evolutionary patterns and their engineering applications by Xiangguo KONG, Tianshuo ZHAO, Haifei LIN, Pengxiang ZHAO, Xu WANG, Yuchu CAI, Pengfei JI, Di HE, Ke LI, Chuanyu XU

“…The analysis of the evolution model reveals that the medium-elevation transition zone and the high-elevation constant current zone were the dominant horizons for gas extraction, with the vertical distances of boreholes designed ranging from 6 m to 25 m. The changes in the pure gas flow extracted from boreholes can be divided into three stages: the initial fluctuation, rapid growth, and slow drop stages. …”
