Research has been carried out to study the peculiarities of rockbump hazards and induced seismic manifestations at the Nikolaevskoe deposit, and their close correlation with the tectonic structure of the rock massif has been established. In order to strengthen control over the rock-bump hazard in the TN-3 high-angle fault, in 2019 the observation network was expanded and continuous seismoacoustic monitoring of the rock mass at the deep levels of Nikolaevskoe deposit was organized. Monitoring data is verified by local geoacoustic method using the portable device “Prognoz L”. The results of the monitoring revealed major acoustically active zone with the main amount of seismic and acoustic events recorded during the last 5 years and occurring dynamic rock pressure manifestations. Nikolaevskoe deposit was the site of execution of the industrial experiment on regional discharge of a potentially rock-bump hazardous section of a shock blasting massif.
