8、 and to co-ordinate the technical terms in current use in mining in the United Kingdom. Although the majority of the terms are necessarily concerned with coal mining, account has been taken of certain terms used in other forms of mining and of quarrying. During the long period which has elapsed sinc
9、e the publication of the last authoritative mining glossary 1) , many new terms have come into use. The need for the present glossary has arisen from the widely varying interpretation and use of such new terms, and the prevalent use of more than one synonym, some purely local in origin, to indicate
10、specific meanings. The glossary will initially be issued in a number of sections, according to subject matter, and will include terms relevant to the following fields of mining: Planning and Surveying; Ventilation; Boring and Exploration; Drainage; Geology; Drilling and Blasting; Electrical Engineer
11、ing and Lighting; Winning and Working; Transport; Shafts and Associated Equipment; Strata Control. The following factors have governed the selection and definition of terms: 1) Where two or more terms are in use the term which is favoured is given first and printed in heavy type. It is hoped that su
12、ch preferred terms will gradually displace the non-preferred terms. Where the use of any term is considered to be undesirable it is marked “deprecated”. 2) Taking a broad view of the various sections of this glossary, only terms which have a specific meaning in mining have been included and, general
13、ly, where a technical term has an accepted meaning in other fields of engineering it has been omitted; the few exceptions are terms which are of particular and fundamental importance in mining. 3) Purely local terms are not defined, but those of sufficient importance are included as non-preferred te
14、rms alongside the preferred synonyms. 4) Obsolete terms are excluded. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immu
15、nity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to13 and a back cover.
