Abstract
The results of mathematical modeling of permafrost rock mass deformation around a mine working with circular cross-section are presented and the influence of thawing on stress state of the rock mass and mine working stability in conditions of a hydrostatic stress field is studied. It is shown that there is a critical size of the thawing halo, upon exceeding which the working starts loosing stability .
