Land subsidence caused by mining activities is an example of human transformation of the
natural environment and leads to changes in land use. The study covers an area of 958 ha …

A particularly large accumulation of mining subsidence basins is characteristic for the
Silesian Upland in southern Poland. This region is home to one of Europe's largest coal …

The Silesian Upland in southern Poland is known as a place where subsidence processes
induced by mining activities occur in an area of nearly 1500 square kilometres, with many …

This article aims to explain and demonstrate the origin and development of a subsidence
basin caused by coal mining as well as to point out important aspects of this phenomenon in …

This paper focuses on the analysis of the overburden strata control mechanisms in stopes
utilising bag filling mining super high-water content material. The factors affecting the mining …

Thick coal seam no. 3, block V, Lupeni mine was mined by longwall top coal caving (LTCC).
After the coal mining, the ground surface underwent continuous subsidence, but since 2008 …

The hard coal seams in the Jiu Valley mining basin have been mined with different mining
methods and technologies, including with the complete caving of the surrounding rocks and …

To increase the economic and technical performances of the Jiu Valley hard coal mines, the
top coal caving, in horizontal slices, mining methods (Bourbaki methods) were introduced …

The main objective of this study is to equip engineering geology with a new, independent
tool of determination of zones of potential hazard in the linear direction in order to assess the …

Land surface deformation due to underground mining has always been a phenomenon that
can cause serious damage, even after the end of underground mining in the area …
