Diverse mining methods decide different mine environment geological problems. For example, underground mining of coal resources often causes mining subsidence opencast mining often causes slope failure and air pollution.

PRECISE LEVELLING NETWORK ADJUSTMENT IN MINING SUBSIDENCE REGIONS... 

The precise levelling network adjustment in mining subsidence regions will produce representative results only when some conditions are fulfilled. The test network of known kinematics was treated by the joint height coordinate and height velocity linear adjustment model. The presented results proved the model s compatibility. Well-timed series of observations anticipate its effective use.

One of the major problems of this mining was the evacuation of water inside, for what was pumped (with pumps up to 45 kW) using off-peak hours at a rate of 140 m /h. Because the exploited area stretching beneath several buildings, some of them were affected by mining subsidence phenomena.
