The first and currently only Jurassic coal seam mining floor Baotashan sandstone water inrush and well flooding accident occurred in the New Shanghai No. 1 Coal Mine in Shanghai Miao Mining Area, Inner Mongolia. This paper researched the water inrush risk assessment method and prevention and control technology of the Baotashan sandstone in the Jurassic coal seam mining floor, which is highly water-rich. Firstly, it is clear that the water inrush source of the "11.25" accident is the Baotashan sandstone aquifer in the lower part of the Jurassic Yan'an formation, and the water barrier between the coal seam and the floor Baotashan sandstone has the characteristics of low strength, low softening coefficient and poor cementation, so it belongs to geological soft rock. Secondly, a water inrush evaluation system was established using “aquifer thickness, aquifer water richness, aquifer permeability, aquifer water pressure and the effective thickness of the 18 coal floor aquifer” as the main indicators, and the water inrush of the Baotashan sandstone aquifer was the dangerous zones are divided into three types: safety zone (32.21%), threat zone (37.53%) and dangerous zone (30.26%), and the accuracy of the evaluation model was verified through the “11.25” water inrush accident. Finally, combined with the engineering geological characteristics of the floor aquifer, the method of “fault grouting to form a local restricted boundary+group hole water release” was used to prevent and control Baotashan sandstone water inrush. It was set that “Water drainage begins until drilling site #1 exits work, the 2#, 3#, and 4# drilling fields continue the water drainage work until 3# exits work, and the 2# and 4# drilling sites continue to drain water until the model is replenished and balanced.” According to the specification, the maximum curtain permeability coefficient after grouting is 2×10−2 m/d, When the curtain permeability coefficient after fault grouting is 2×10−2 − 2×10−8 m/d, the drainage volume is 4.02×10−4 m3 − 3.478×10−4 m3. The proportion of safe areas in the mining area is 43.34%−67.37% respectively. Combining the grouting cost, drained water volume and safe area, when the curtain permeability coefficient is not greater than 2×10−4 m/d, can effectively ensure the safety and technical and economic benefits of the mine. The combined technology of fault grouting local restriction boundary+water drainage can effectively prevent and control sandstone water damage in Baotashan. The research work in this paper is of great significance and engineering practice value for the prevention and control of floor water in the Jurassic Coalfield development in western China.
