Correlating the values of mining-induced surface deformation with the rock mass structure and the state of its disturbance is of crucial importance. Therefore, if other mining conditions are left unaffected, then those factors exert the key influence on a course and distribution of subsidence and rock mass deformation. A proper description of rock mass type and properties also seems rational for a proper determination of prediction parameters, especially in the case of a multi-seam coal mining, and/or the exploitation carried out at considerable depths. A general outcome of the study discussed in this paper is the development of the methodology and model practices for determining the rock mass type and, as a result, for selecting the optimal values of parameters for predicting the values of surface subsidence in relation to particular geological and mining conditions. The study proves that the type of rock mass may be described by such factors as the influence of overburden strata, the influence of Carboniferous layers, the disturbance of rock mass and the depth of exploitation.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Estimation of mining impact on surfacein relation to rock mass type}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/103227/PDF/kryzia-majcherek-niedbalski.pdf}, doi={10.24425/118653}, keywords={coal mining with caving, surface deformations, subsidence, rock mass type}, }
