Abstract

Along with the enlarging of post-mining towns, the use of abandoned mining areas for various purposes is gradually being approached. This raises the question of the safety of the closed shafts. The following article discusses the determination of attributes which can help to reveal stability problems of disused mine shafts with the increasing of mine water level in Ostrava Basin. The first part is devoted to the need to obtain the most relevant documents about each of the shafts. These documents include data from the treatment of the shaft, backfilling, historical data about excavation, collapses, geology, or data on gas emissions from shaft cap. The next part is focused on the study of historical shaft collapses both in Czech Republic and abroad, thorough study of the cases of their occurrence, their possible connection with the affection of mine water and its potential impact on the backfill material of reinforcement of the shaft. The last part explains the process of selecting key attributes for the compilation of the evaluation algorithm, their subsequent incorporation into the database and the resulting evaluation proposal for individual disused mine shafts within the Ostrava Basin. The goal is to use these findings for the future development of a universal stability evaluation system for all the disused mine shafts.
