Post-Mining Multi-Hazard Assessment for Sustainable Development

Today, most mines (coal, iron, and others) in Europe are already closed due to economic, environmental, societal issues. Therefore, post-mining risk assessment management remain crucial for mining authorities, policymakers, planners. In the period, several hazards likely affect surface areas sites. The impact of can lead potentially damaging changes and/or underground water flow, as well development instabilities that people or infrastructure, sometimes dangerously. different must consider interaction between other risks (natural technological). Thus, land use planning, particularly rehabilitation former sites, requires better tools apprehend multiplicity their constraints. paper presents a methodology considering interactions around mines. After recalling advantages this multi-hazard analysis, work consisted of, almost exhaustively, describing three prominent families hazards: mining, natural, technological. Then, possible were described according nature (trigger aggravating), category (technical regulatory), typology (dependent independent). Finally, an attempt was proposed evaluate type intensity hazards. applied coal mine showed complexity utility such analysis improve
