| Summary: | The paper reviews the literature on the state of the problem of mining seismicity in the territory in the territory of Kazakhstan and Russia mainly caused by rockbursts. Additionally it analyzes prospect of using special seismic monitoring systems as rockburst control tool. Seismicity is the phenomena that occur naturally from an earthquake or unnaturally by man-made activity. Seismicity caused by human activity during mining operations is the subject of the study. In the case of mining, a seismic event identified as a rockburst causes the destruction of an excavation, equipment, staff hurt, and disaster. In terms of safety, efficiency, and production, such effects as rockburst and seismicity may have a significant impact on the development of mines. In spite of technical developments, however, the rockburst estimation is still a challenging and debatable procedure in the mining industry. The majority of seismically passive and quiet mines are shallow and small, with a depth not exceeding 1 km. With the increasing production period and depletion of mineral recourses, underground mines have become deeper worldwide. This reality makes the issue of the mine seismicity quite crucial. That is why microseismic monitoring system is becoming more and more popular with current technical advancements, and this tool is extensively used in the mining industry, particularly in in-depth underground mining projects. © 2022, National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
