AB - The water-soluble mining is often accompanied by ground subsidence, which  could result in the severity of ground subsidence disasters. The roof of the  salt-bearing strata in the Longgui salt rock mining area is close to the  third aquifer, which is mostly composed of muddy conglomerate and other  porous rocks with large porosity and permeability. The water-soluble mining  for many years has caused serious ground subsidence in the mining area, and  there is a tendency to accelerate subsidence. Taking Longgui salt rock mine  as a case, the mining subsidence mechanism was analyzed and discussed  through the water dissolution simulation test. This study is of great  significance to the prevention and control of ground subsidence disasters in  Longgui salt rock mine, and also has certain reference value for other  similar mining areas.
