20 - APPENDIX A - EXAMPLE OF STANDARD FORM FOR RECORDING SAMPLING DATA

Describes procedures suitable for taking samples from coal seams in underground and open-cut mines by pillar sampling, channel sampling, strip sampling, bore core sampling, drill cuttings sampling and open-cut slot sampling. Does not apply to sampling from production moving streams or any other source of coal not in place. An example of a form for recording sampling data is provided in an appendix.

This Standard is a guide to the methods recommended for taking samples from higher rank coal seams in the ground, whether from exploration tenements, or from operating underground or open-cut mines. The following methods are described:(a) Bore core sampling.(b) Drill cuttings sampling.(c) Open-cut slot sampling.(d) Pillar sampling.(e) Channel sampling.(f) Strip sampling.This Standard does not apply to sampling from production moving streams or any other source of coal not in place.Recommendations are made for selection and preparation of the sampling site, and methods are described for taking both small and bulk samples, and for preparing the samples for transport.NOTE: Appendix A includes an example of a sample record form that may be used to record sampling and other relevant data, and AS 4264.1 describes how to determine the mass of sample required for representativeness at various nominal top sizes.
