THE USE OF SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE IN THE INVESTIGATION OF EXPLOSIONS OF GAS AND DUST MIXTURES IN COAL MINES

The article is devoted to the generalization of approaches conducting forensic mining examinations in investigation explosions gas-dust mixtures coal mines. practical significance obtained results use special knowledge and other types (trasological, petrochemical, firetechnical, etc.) mines, which will ensure rapid, complete, safe investigation. A characteristic feature explosion studies that conclusions about reliable circumstances, causes consequences emergency situations can often be made with combined classical mining, expert techniques. General engineering expertise fire-technical, study make it possible to: determine technical condition workings, machines, mechanisms equipment; establish situations; consider causal relationships between actions specific individuals requirements regulatory legal acts on labor protection. Key words: mine, accident, mixture explosion, high-temperature flame front, toxic harmful combustion products, emergency, investigation, air wave.
