Coal mine water damage is a major hidden danger of mine safety production, threatening mine safety. In order to effectively prevent water damage, Menkeqing Coal Mine has carried out the research of electric method exploration, using transient electromagnetic method to detect the water-rich condition of strata. By analyzing the resistivity data and combining it with supplementary exploration, four major waterlogged areas in the mine were circled, and their spatial distribution and geological characteristics were clarified. The study shows that these methods are highly sensitive and accurate in identifying the water-rich layers, providing a reliable basis for the prevention and control of water hazards in coal mines, and helping to improve the level of mine safety and production.
