The sustainability of shallow groundwater systems, pivotal to maintaining ecosystem equilibrium and facilitating the sustainable development of mine sites, is the core of various dynamic indicators in response to mining activity and mining area planning. This study quantitatively evaluates the impact of mining activities on shallow groundwater systems at the orefield scale, taking the equivalent permeability coefficient (EPC) of “Soil–Rock” composite water-resisting strata and the response mechanism of shallow groundwater in multi-mine mining as the entry points. A modified six-step evaluation method for the response mechanism of shallow groundwater in multi-mine mining is proposed using mathematical statistics, numerical simulation, and theoretical analysis methods. The method is used to evaluate the sustainability of the shallow water system in the Yushen mining area, to study the distribution characteristics of the water resource carrying capacity (WRCC) in different mining areas of the Yushen area, and to analyze the number of mines allowed to be mined under geological conditions with a WRCC of more than moderate bearing capacity. The results show that when the mining area of a mine in the Yushen area is set to 1 × 108, 7.5 × 107, 5 × 107, and 2.5 × 107 m2, as the mining area of the designed mine decreases, the area bearing surplus gradually increases, with values of 1.70 × 109, 1.98 × 109, 2.28 × 109, and 2.58 × 109 m2. The number of mines allowed to be mined under geological conditions with a WRCC above moderate capacity is 20, 31, 51, and 112, respectively. |
