The high concentration of methane in mine airstream Available online 01st Dec. 2021 is cause of many negative effects on various underground works. In some cases Keywords when the methane content in underground areas reaches the limit value mine Gas emission fires can occur with great loss of people and equipment. In many countries High methane content where the coal mining industry is developed practical experience in deep mining has shown that current popular methods of coal seams preparation can Impact vibration not always bring absolute safety in working faces especially when extracting Low permeability and recovering coal seams with high methane content. The purpose of this study Preparation of coal seams. is to develop an appropriate coal seam preparation method that can minimize the risk of methane emissions which is one of the causes of unsafety in the underground coal mining. In this paper the authors propose to use a combination of different impact methods through boreholes to control the intensity of methane release from high methane content coal seams. The combined use of hydraulic and vibration methods will greatly increase the network of man-made cracks in the coal mass which allows methane to escape more easily .
