Abstract: In order to safely mine deep coal-seam with rock-burst liability,rule of stress and deformation of surrounding rock in mining upper protective coal-seam was simulated by numerical method and geo-stress was test on the basis of geological and mining condition of 12^th mining area in Jining 3^rd mine.Results were showed as follows.Mining protective coal-seam would change stress distribution state of protected coal-seam.Protective coal-seam mining would destroy its roof and floor rock structure and release elastic energy of higher strata in advance,which improve energy accumulation and release condition of protected coal-seam.With protective mining face advancing,stress in protected coal-seam would come through 3 phrases including stress increase before mining,stress decrease after mining and stress stability.Numerical simulation result was fit for on-the-spot observation data,so the results would provide reference for mining design.
