Oh "potentials", "can"etc. No actual evidence. Consider this - The facilities are likely built on the same site as the coal plant. The coal plants should not have been built on top mine adits or drives, without a large engineered buffer. And adits and drives are engineered to withstand collapse.

Sorry. I must be clearer. There is no danger from a mine collapsing or subsiding if the plant is away from the open pit. Capiche?

So what area around the open pit is monitored? 200 metres? one kilometre?

I went back to your reference. It is all in there,



So three times the depth of the pit from the "toe" to the "crest" and then one more depth width to the offset. So if the pit were one kilometre deep, the exclusion zone offset from the "Crest" would be 1 kilometre.

It seems that 500m is the current batter depth.
