Abstract

The results of a detailed statistical survey of the karstic features in the Olkusz region are described. The data has been obtained from surface boreholes and mine galleries. Although the karstic features studied were vertical, its main development is from the first 200 metres. The main hydrogeological problems are also described in relation to mining, emphasising that the greatest danger of sudden inrushes of water are in relation to the contact zones between lime-stones and dolomites.
