Experimental Study on Mudstone’s Strength Characteristics in Deep-Buried Coal-Measure Formation: A Case Study of Permian Longtan Formation

To investigate the strength characteristics of mudstone in deep-buried coal-measure formation, four types of experiments have been conducted: (i) the X-ray diffraction (XRD) test; (ii) the scanning electron microscope (SEM) scanning test; (iii) the point load strength index test; and (iv) the uniaxi...
