Coal Strip Ratio Maps

Strip Ratio MapsThe following ten strip ratio maps were generated accross the 2011 Coal model area:to Yallourn seam floor;to Morwell 1a seam floor;to Morwell 1b seam floor;to Morwell 2a seam floor;to Morwell 2a seam floor;to Traralgon seam floor;to 200m depth;to 300m depth;to 400m depth; andto 500m depth.Maps show vertical striping ratio expressed as coal tonnes to waste cubic metres. Seam floor maps are calculated to the floor of the specified seam (or lowest split); or lowest overlying seam if this seam is absent. Depth maps are calculated to the lowest seamfloor that is shallower than the specified depth. The model is based on a pre-mine topography and substantial coal has already been extracted.Link to Further Coal Seam model InformationLink to Coal Model Data (works in firefox , but not internet explorer)
