The Impact of Coal Mining Production on the Groundwater Sys-tem in the Mu Us Desert
This article takes the coal mine in the gravel well mining area as an example to illustrate the various water channels generated by mining,such as roof mining cracks and old kiln tunnels.After continuous dewatering,the water levels of the origi-nal groundwater aquifers are reduced,which further affects the water level and quality of groundwater and surface water,and has an irreversible impact on the growth of surface vegetation.The system analyzed the impact of coal mining production on the groundwater system of the Mu Us Desert.
