FREE Terrafirma Webinar – The Hidden Hazards of Coal Mining – What Lies Beneath?

Thursday 17th October @ 11:00 am - 11:45 am

FREE Terrafirma Webinar – The Hidden Hazards of Coal Mining – What Lies Beneath?

Coal mining is the most well-known form of mineral extraction in the UK. Part of the reason for its fame is through an unwanted legacy in the form of subsidence, collapses and water contamination. Such was the extent of coal mining-related damages that a standalone government body was formed in order to handle all coal mining operations, hazards and repairs (The Coal Authority following the 1994 Coal Industry Act).

However, despite this safety net enabled to protect those involved in property transactions, coal and other mining-related hazards are continuously overlooked due to reliance on “data queries” rather than interpretation of data. Learn when, where and how ground risk assessment should be used, discover more about the hidden coal and other mining & ground hazards beneath your feet and importantly, why the interpretation of data is essential in identifying, understanding and acting upon the potential risks the ground poses

During this webinar, we will cover: 

• A brief introduction to coal mining in the UK
• How coal mining-related instability can impact property and a transaction
• How the risks can and have been missed
• Changing perceptions
• Identifying the risks
