Original Title:
Επίδραση των υδρογεωλογικών και υδροδυναμικών συνθηκών αρτεσιανού υδροφορέα στην εκμετάλλευση λιγνίτη. Η περίπτωση του ορυχείου Μαυροπηγής.
Translated title:
Influence of hydrogeological and hydrodynamic conditions of artesian aquifer on lignite exploitation. The case of the Mavropigi mine.
Summary:
During the exploitation of lignite deposits, the aquifers that develop in the upper and intermediate aquifers are cut off and expanded at the excavation site. In addition, aquifers growing in the background are likely to feed loose sediments, which can be extremely dangerous, as they can enter the excavation site under pressure after breaking the bottom or slopes. Given that the level of the aquifer of the underlying layers is higher than the absolute altitude of the mine floor, the problem lies in the design of drainage measures to prevent groundwater from entering the pressurized aquifer on the floor of the Mavropigi mine.
