Sulfur: a neglected driver of the increased abundance of antibiotic resistance genes in agricultural reclaimed subsidence land located in coal mines with high phreatic water levels.

Due to the shallow burial of groundwater in coal mines with a high phreatic water level, a large area of subsidence lakes is formed after the mine collapses. Agricultural and fishery reclamation activities have been carried out, which introduced antibiotics and exacerbated the contamination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), but this has received limited attention. This study analyzed ARG occurrence in reclaimed mining areas, the key impact factors, and the underlying mechanism.

An Investigation on the Impact of Unloading Rate on Coal Mechanical Properties and Energy Evolution Law.

In order to further explore the relationship between the excavation speed and the damage of surrounding rocks and dynamic manifestation, the stress paths of unloading confining pressure and loading axial pressure were designed based on the changes in the roadway surrounding rock stress in this study. Additionally, the mechanical properties and energy evolution law of the coal body were investigated under various unloading rates. As the unloading rate increased, the mechanical properties of the coal body including the failure strength, the confining pressure, the axial strain, and horizontal strain tended to decrease at the rupture stage, while the volume strain and the elastic modulus increased, indicating that the rupture form evolved from the ductile failure to brittle failure.
