It is described a geological exploration and mining operation in the Bzie-Dębina area. The drilling of five new surface boreholes to a depth of 1.300 meters in the southern part of the “Bzie-Dębina 2-West” deposit suggests a significant effort to better understand the geology and potential resources of the area. By employing more accurate prospecting techniques and utilizing digital models of the deposit, the correlation of deposits and geological interpretation underwent changes. This suggests that the new data obtained from the boreholes and mine workings challenged or refined previous understandings of the geological formations and structures in the area. Moreover, the interpolation of qualitative data from the coal seams within the “Bzie-Dębina 2-West” and “Bzie-Dębina 1-West” deposits has been altered. This could imply adjustments to estimations regarding the quality, quantity, or distribution of coal within these seams, which are crucial for planning and optimizing mining operations. Overall, these developments indicate a dynamic process of exploration and refinement, driven by advances in technology and methodologies for studying and exploiting mineral resources.
