The need to apply innovations in the field of environmental modernization is related to all branches of the domestic industry. Its particular relevance for the enterprises of the mining complex necessitates the neo-industrialization of the integrated development of the subsoil resources. The article defines the conceptual conditions for the development of sustainable geotechnologies. The nonlinear nature of the dynamics of methane release into the methane drainage boreholes has been proved and an explanation of the mechanism for its implementation under the influence of situational geomechanical conditions for developing reserves of high-gas-bearing coal seams has been proposed.
