Mining hazards considers the long and varied legacy of underground extraction of minerals in Great Britain. Previous research has defined the spatial extent of non-coal mining and now the BGS isinvestigating the 'zone of influence' around areas of underground mining.
Find out more about the differences between rocks and minerals and how they are formed.
The NHP builds on the interdisciplinary expertise of its partners to deliver better coordinated natural hazards science, research and advice to Governments, Civil Contingency responders and other hazard resilience groups across the UK.
We are working with partners to develop a citizen science app for collecting and sharing observations of natural hazards and impacts in near real-time.
