Extensive measurement programmes have been carried out in an operating coal mine, both in the heading face and in the coal above it. Coal samples have been analysed and tested in thelaboratories of HVL. The aim of this study is to analyse the advantages and drawbacks of the chosen indices, their relationship with operating parameters such as distance between the heading face and the shortwall face, height difference between both levels, heading face and roadway optimization of the different borehole degasi?cation patterns and water injection in those boreholes. It is concluded that a simple methodology to predict and control sudden methane outbursts has been developed and put into practice in HVL. This methodology is based on the mentioned indices and it can be partially or totally extrapolated to other underground coal mines. Introduction HVL Company located in the province of Leon in the North of Spain, is an underground coal mine with three shafts connected between them. The annual coal production is 2 million tons and the proved explo
