This paper studies the rock mass stress state under highland conditions, depending on the geological structure of a particular rock mass area, the tectonic field of stresses and the region relief. This study is aimed to develop an experimental method for assessing and monitoring the properties and state of the rock mass adjacent to mine workings. Experimental studies are performed through stresses measurements in-situ. Based on research results, it has been revealed that the geological structures, tectonic fields of stresses and the earth’s surface relief of the deposit normally reflect the values and direction of the main stresses acting in the mass. These patterns can be used to predict and assess the stress state of the rock mass. During the mass stress state assessment, quantitative dependences have been obtained for determining the stress tensors conditioned by the overlying rocks weight, tectonics and fracturing, and the deposit surface relief The research results make possible to assess the nature of the stresses distribution, to identify the areas of reduced, equal, increased and maximum stresses concentration of the virgin mass, as well as to increase the efficiency of the geoacoustic control developed by the authors for the state of the mass adjacent to mine working. According to the new patterns and dependences obtained, the values and directions have been scientifically determined of the main stresses action, as well as the zones of stresses manifestation. These patterns and dependences are valuable for designing and planning the development of mining operations.

Abstract Stress state in the rock mass determines design of mine workings, their proper maintenance, and safety of the personnel working there. That is why numerous methods of determining stress state in the rock mass have been devised. One of the categories of such methods are hydraulic ones. The most commonly known methods of hydrofracturing and the HTPF have certain limitations resulting from their assumptions. The presented method based on directed hydrofracturing of rocks enables determining values and directions of principal stresses in the rock mass, independently on the complexity of local stress state. The essence of the method, conditions of conducting tests and the method of calculating components of stress state basing on underground measurements are presented.

This article considers mining and geological conditions of the site “Blagodatny” of the mine named after A.D. Ruban located underneaththe old open pit coal mine and the hydraulic-mine dump. The potentially dangerous zones in the undermined rock mass have been identified based onthe conditions of formation of water inflow into mine workings. Safe depthof coal seams mining has been calculated depending on the type of water body – the hydraulic-mine dump.

The paper represents the results of monitoring and evaluation of the efficiency of hydroimpulsive disintegration of outburst-prone coal seams in the stopes of development mine workings using a system of sound detecting facilities. Methods of acoustic emission control have been considered as well as the monitoring tasks to evaluate rock mass conditions before the procedure and after it inclusive of the results of sound accompaniment of hydraulic disintegration of the coal seam. It has been determined that the higher concentration of stresses within the rock mass is, the more efficient action of high frequency self-oscillations of cavitation transmitter is on both the fissuring and changes in gas-dynamic state of the coal seam. It has been recommended to apply a mode of impulsive fluid pumping under the conditions where coal seam is in the stress-strain state.

Before taking any measures to build a tunnel, the rock (soil) is in a primary stress state, which means that the stress state is a function of the thickness of the overburden. At the moment when the measures necessary to excavate a tunnel are taken, the rock state changes from primary to secondary, leading to stress concentration, especially in the tunnel abutments. If the rock is capable of accepting these stresses, a state of equilibrium is reached after certain deformations. Plastic deformations can occur if the stresses are larger than the strength of the rock mass. To avoid excessive deformations or collapse of the rock and the tunnel excavation, it is necessary to place a support. The achieved factor of safety is a function of both the support type and the time when the support is installed. This paper shall present a numerical example of different pressures considered in order to obtain the rock’s reaction curve.
