## 6 Conclusions  
1. The influence of the mining at the working faces located on both sides of the main roadways was significantly greater than that from a single-sided working face. The intensity of the tremors near the main roadway was correlated with the distance

between the working face and the main roadways. The smaller the distance, the greater the activity of the tremors near the main roadways;
2. The mining activities at the working face had an influence range of more than 800 m. The tremors were linearly distributed along the main roadways. The distribution of the tremors near the main roadway moved along with the mining of the working face. Although the mining at the working face had ended for a month, there were still many tremors near the main roadways. It was not until five months later that the tremors near the main roadways gradually disappeared. This indicates that the tremors near the main roadways were mainly formed due to the mining activities at the working face. The influence of mining activities on main roadways will last for more than five months;
3. The increase in stress caused by the mining activities was one of the main factors in regard to the occurrence of rockbursts in the main roadways and the high stress within the main roadways themselves was another factor;
4. By implementing deep-hole blasting of the roof strata to reduce the influence of the mining at the working face on the main roadways, and by implementing stress relief measures to reduce the stress concentration within the main roadways, rockbursts in the main roadways were effectively prevented;
5. Through real-time microseismic event monitoring, energy density cloud maps, and seismic velocity tomography applied in regard to the main roadways, the risk areas of rockbursts caused by mining-induced stress can be identified, so that effective preventive measures can be taken to minimize casualties and property losses.
