Abstract
Ore production in deep rock-bump hazardous mines is closely connected with the need to in-crease workers’ safety, which demands heavy costs of taking preventive shockproof actions and applying expensive protection systems against mountain blows. The article considers a resource forecasting technique and a bump hazard evaluation method for a rock mass area, based on a mi-cromechanical model, which registers acoustic emission of heterogeneous materials, and empirical data, obtained as a result of acoustic signals registration with the help of the model, aimed at seis-mic-acoustic activity evaluation at «Taimir» and «Oktyabrsky» rock mass areas, belonging to Norylsk industrial region.
