Influence of overburden combination structures on mining-induced fracture development and its height prediction for weakly consolidated formation in Western China
Key Points
Fracture development significantly correlates with overburden structures, impacting mining safety.
Key evidence shows that specific overburden types contribute to fracture variations in weakly consolidated formations.
Observational analysis across Western China evaluates mining-induced stress effects on fracture patterns.
Understanding these influences may enhance predictive models for geological stability and mining operations.
