Use of 3D Seismic to Predict Mining and Geological Conditions for Extracting Coal Beds the Donets Coal Basin

摘要

A case study of integrated geologic and geophysical interpretation of 3D seismic data at coal mine is given. Experience of investigation of thin coal beds by surface-reflected waves is considered. A more reliable, in comparison with previous investigations, tectonic structure of coal bed and enclosing rocks necessary for efficient mine planning and preventing coal and methane outbursts is determined.
