Categories of mining areas of closed mines due to limitations of land use for building purposes on selected examples

Abstract

The paper presents the issue of categorization of mining areas of liquidated coal mines in terms of land development limitations. The authors have presented their observations regarding the determination of hazard zones resulting from the presence of linear and surface discontinuous deformations, excessive subsidence and tilt zones as well as the duration of the final phase of deformation process.
