TECHNOGENIC AND TECTONIC (MINING AND GEOLOGICAL) FACTORS OF MODERN SURFACE AND SURFACE SUBSTANCES AND PROCESSES IN EXTRACTIVE REGIONS OF THE DONETS BASIN

Abstract

The study of modern man-made and tectonic (mining-geological) factors in changing the geological environment of pre-anthropogenic mining regions and the degree of inheritance of tectonic and man-made structures is relevant to establish the impact of mining on the environment. Long-term mining operations and significant masses of rocks and coal extracted from the depths led to the formation of new geological and man-made structures, which led to the acceleration of downward movements of strata and increased subsidence of subsurface strata. The study was conducted during 2004 - 2021 in the Donetsk basin. Man-made and recent tectonic changes in the earth's interior and its surface are gaining significant momentum due to the intensification and spread of man-made factors. Natural and man-made objects, as an integral part of the modern environment are components, without taking into account the impact of which on the modern geological and environmental environment, can not predict the further development of matter and energy as parts of the earth and the planet as a whole.
