In-mine Geoelectric Methods for Detection of Tectonic Disturbances of Coal Seams

In-mine geoelectric methods – the geoelectric seam-sounding and geoelectric transillumination – were applied for detection of fault zones in a coal mine. The measured data were interpreted using geoelectric tomography algorithm. Appreciable agreements were found between the location of tectonic zones predicted by the interpretation and those observed during the mining extraction.
