Abstract

The authors anlyze conditions and factors that influence coal pitwall stability and substantiate applicability of electrical tomography for their exploration. Experimental studies of physico-mechanical properties of the Bikinsky brown-coal pitwall rocks are reported. The article proposes a procedure for electrical tomography exploration of weak layers and lentils within geological column.
