  • Systems, apparatuses, and methods for determining rock-coal transition with a drilling machine
    Patent number: 11834943
    Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for controlling operation of a drilling machine includes determining a rock-coal transition and enabling both the real-time control of the blasthole drilling operation of the drilling machine responsive to the determination of the rock-coal transition or using the rock-coal transition information for mine planning in a post-processing application. Such controlling can include stopping the drilling operation of the drilling machine prior to or upon reaching the coal. Mine planning allows for more efficient removal of the exploitable coal. The determining and controlling can be performed in real time based on specialized transformation of Monitor-While Drilling (MWD) data from one or more sensors of the drilling machine while the drilling machine is drilling. The mine planning application is based on processing the Monitor-While Drilling (MWD) data from one or more sensors of the drilling machine after the drilling machine has completed the drilling of a blasthole or blastholes.

  • SYSTEMS, APPARATUSES, AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING ROCK MASS PROPERTIES BASED ON BLASTHOLE DRILL PERFORMANCE DATA INCLUDING COMPENSATED BLASTABILITY INDEX (CBI)
    Publication number: 20230323770
    Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for determining intact versus fractured rock zones based on performance monitoring of an electric drilling machine when drilling a blasthole. The determination can be based on a calculation of compensated blastability index (“CBI”) values using transformed performance monitoring data collected in real-time as the drilling machine drills the blasthole.
