Application of Comprehensive Geophysical Prospecting Method in the Exploration of Coal Mined-Out Areas by Xiao Luo, Shuang Gong, Zhonggang Huo, Hongyan Li, Xinpin Ding

“…Due to the influence of mining technology, some coal mines will leave mined-out areas (or goafs) in the rock mass after mining. If the distribution law and influence scope of mined-out areas cannot be accurately explored and controlled, it will bring great potential safety hazards to subsequent coal mining and cause serious harm to adjacent houses, roads, bridges, railways, and so on. …”
