Abstract

A probabilistic relation between seismic activity and the volume V of extracted deposits in mines is derived

$$ \Sigma E\;{\rm{ = }}C \cdot {V^B} $$

where C and B are parameters characterizing mining works and the state of rock mass.

Assuming that the measure of seismic hazard is the amount of seismic energy released in a given time interval, it is shown how the hazard can be evaluated continuously. The derived relations were tested in selected coal mines in Upper Silesia.
