title = "Gas content and spontaneous combustion investigations for uckardesler asphaltite vein",
abstract = "Asphaltite with its high calorific value is important raw material for energy and thermal power plant. Southern eastern part of Turkey is also a good deposit for asphaltite. The increasing amount of demand from energy sector will cause in the production of asphaltite from deeper levels. Therefore, production of asphaltite from underground mining methods will be interested in mining sector. Gas content and risk classification of spontaneous combustion are the important factors to understand the applicability of underground mining methods for asphaltite. These investigations are used to select the underground mining method not only for economic reasons but also for safety concerns. This study contains the results of these investigations specified for Uckardesler asphaltite vein located in Silopi, Sirnak, Turkey. The results of this study shall be discussed among designers and planners specialized in mining for the possibility of underground mining applications for asphaltite production.",
