Precise tilt measurements for monitoring of mine fields at Stebnyk potassium deposit area

Journal Title: Геодинаміка - Year 2017, Vol 23, Issue 2

Abstract

Aim. The purpose of this research is a monitoring of the possible deformation processes in the territory of the mining fields of mine No. 2 in Stebnyks potassium deposit using precise tilt meters. Method. Tilt measurements were carried out to find the magnitude and azimuth of the maximum inclination of the territory. The magnitude and azimuth were computed based on measurements and , along corresponding axes X and Y from inclinometers (Nivel 210)were installed in the study area. Results. From December 31, 2017, measurements of the inclination angles were received every second from stations “Modrychi” and “Visyt”, from inclinometers installed in basements of buildings in the Modrychi village, and in the Truskavets outskirts. Every ten minutes those data were automatically written to special observation files. Special software NivelDataCollector has been developed for automated collection and processing of information from high-precision digital inclinometers. The daily values of the maximum inclination angle obtained at the tilting stations "Modrychi" and "Visyt" changed. According to these data, these changes in maximum inclination angle mean velocity and its magnitude and azimuth were computed. Scientific novelty. Scientific novelty consists in the possibility of real time study of the spatial kinematics in industrially dangerous territories based on the results of tilting observations. Practical significance. Obtained tilt measurements results from mine No. 2 of Stebnitsky potassium deposit area allowed to predict possible threats of infrastructure destruction.
