Wing location

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mining, a wing location is a pit branching off to the side of the main tunnel . Each tunnel can have one or more wing locations.

Basics and Necessity

When building tunnels , the main tunnels are driven in a certain direction with a certain gradient . As a result, laterally located areas of the deposit cannot be directly developed. In order to reach these lateral parts of the deposit, branching wing sites are excavated. Flügelörter are also opened if from a tunnel from a neighboring mine resolved to be. The crushed pit water from the neighboring pit is then fed to the water solution tunnel via the wing location . The operator of the wing location was also entitled to the rights of the Stollner. In this way, the Stollner could have his main town stepped up and instead of the main tunnel he could open one or more wing towns. Ultimately, wing locations are also excavated in order to carry out a partial investigation of the mountains.

Approach direction

Wing sites are driven across from the main tunnel or from the heritage tunnel. The excavation is done, depending on local conditions söhlig . However, it is also possible that the drive-up direction is either upward into the hanging wall or downwardly into the horizontal . The individual wing locations can continue to be divided so that further wing locations can be driven in different directions from one wing location. This creates right and left secondary wings. Depending on the need, further wing locations can also be opened from these side wings, so that the floor plan is similar to a tree trunk and its branches.
