In connection with a gradual extraction of ore areas in a valley, with the aim of support of annual output of the Koashva open-pit mine, a necessity arises in involving in the mining of near-ore bank reserves, located in the north-west bench of open-pit mine. For uncovering and mining of near-ore bank reserves it is necessary to assess the geodynamic and geomechanical conditions for support of the safe mining operations. The article describes the solution of this problem by means of software product 3DEC of Itasca firm.
The paper contains the results of numerical experiments about the influence of natural factors on the value of safety factor and dimensions of ultimate state zones for analysis of stability of boards of open-cast mines.
The paper presents the results of combination of geomechanical and geophyisical monitoring. The stress state of the minable coal seams is calculated according to the program FAULT3D with account of mining operations plan, specific seam occurrence and geological disturbances. The analysis of seismic events in the geodynamically hazardous zone has been made.
