Zoning Evaluation of Geological Hazard in YuLin Coal Mining Area

Abstract

As an important exporter of coal resources in China, Yulin has made great contribution to the repaid development of the national economy. But, the geological disaster item caused by large-scale exploitation of coal resources is becoming more and more serious. On the basis of county geological disaster investigation data in Yulin, the research analyzes and summarizes the type, scope, damage degree of the geological disaster in the whole city, especially coal area qualitatively and quantitatively. The article makes clear the spatial distribution of geological disasters in Yulin and it hope that the work can provide scientific guidance to geological disaster prevention in the future. By the research, we get several results as follow: first, There are 905 geological disasters points in Yulin and the mainly the types of all are Collapse, Landslide, Debris Flow, Unstable Slopes, and Ground Subsidence; Second, Collapse and Landslide are the major geological disasters type, and Ground Subsidence is the most serious hazard type in Yulin although its number is small. Third, according to the result above, the city has been divided into different geological disaster-prone areas with MAPGIS, and there are 11 high geological disaster-prone areas, 12 middle, 8 low and 3 undeveloped areas.
