Gas-geochemistry approach to monitoring mining-induced genesis processes in the geological environment of the Upper Kama Potassium Salt Deposit

The article focuses at the gas-geochemistry profiling results at the Upper Kama Potassium Salt Deposit. It has been examined how the mining-caused deformations in the salt strata and abovesalt hydrocarbon strata influence the gas background in the subsurface layers. Efficiency of the gasgeochemistry approach to monitoring the mining-induced genesis processes in the studied geological environment has been proved.
