Abstract
Summary
On the Verkhnekamsk potassium deposit located in the West of the Urals, the main problem for safe operation of mines is the preservation waterproof strata of rocks, i.e. thickness between the mines and the surface. The observation of this layer is performed by a complex of geophysical methods. An important role in this complex is reserved gravimetry, which includes observation of gravity in the mines. For example, the interpretation gravity field on one of the mines of the Verkhnekamsk potassium deposit shows the effectiveness of the implementation of surface and underground survey in order to detect weakened fractured zones waterproof strata in the complex of measures of safe operation of mining enterprises.
