The stability of underground coal mine roofs is a critical concern in mining operations. An unstable roof not only poses significant safety risks to miners but can also lead to operational delays and increased costs. To systematically assess and manage these risks, the Coal Mine Roof Rating (CMRR) system was developed. The CMRR provides a quantitative method for evaluating the strength and stability of mine roofs, enabling engineers to design appropriate support systems and mitigate potential geohazards.
