Determination of geological conditions of gassy coal seams on the basis of seismic acoustic profiling in underground mine workings

Abstract

The article views the experience of mine geophysical prospecting using a seismic screening method of roof rocks from mine workings. The possibility of recording coal seams structural disturbances is estimated based on the analysis of seismic signals velocity fluctuation. The results of coal seam conditions assessment and their influence on the technological process of coal mining are presented.
