Groundwater flowing in the forefield of the CSA mine (North Bohemian Brown Coal Basin in the Czech Republic)

Submitted paper describes the simulation of the groundwater flowing in the significant collectors of the interesting area. The interest area is situated to the central part of the North Bohemian Brown Coal Basin in the Czech Republic. There is one of the biggest coal opencast mine called CSA in the Czech Republic. The groundwater flow brings in consequence great stability problem of the upper overburden cuts. We decided to construct the three dimensional geological model and we created a simulation of the groundwater flowing. The submitted paper follow up by the available archival materials, comprehensive processing geology (depositing, lithological characteristics) and hydrogeological conditions. The results of geological and hydrogeological analysis help us to identify the areas that could pose risk for the extraction of mineral resources, particularly of the brown coal.
