[0002] Mine geological disasters, also known as mine geological disasters and mining geological disasters, refer to disasters that endanger human life and property safety, damage mining engineering equipment and mining resources and environment, and affect mining production due to the destruction of large-scale mining shafts and tunnels, deformation of rock and soil, and serious changes in the geological, hydrogeological conditions and natural environment of the mining area during mineral deposit mining activities.

[0003] The repair methods for geological disaster areas in mining areas in the existing technology are to remove dangerous rock masses and potentially unstable blocks, cut slopes, implement systematic anchoring and retaining wall support, use steel mesh sprayed concrete support for broken zones, establish a combined surface and underground drainage system, and drill water holes for drainage when necessary; this repair method uses existing reinforced concrete, and the coal gangue in the mining area is solid waste generated during coal mining and washing, so it is necessary to utilize and fill this waste to improve resource recycling.

[0004] When applying for the present invention, the applicant searched and found that a Chinese patent disclosed a "method for repairing the ecology of geological disaster areas in mining areas using coal gangue", and its application number is "202010689998.6". This patent mainly solves the problem that when coal gangue is unloaded by a dump truck, the impact force of coal gangue is large, which will cause a certain degree of damage to the roadbed, and the coal gangue cannot be fully unloaded on the roadbed. The later leveling of the coal gangue is relatively cumbersome. However, this patent is for repairing the roadbed in the mining area. At the same time, the slope in the mining area is large. When rainwater erosion occurs, landslides and collapse risks will occur. The geological disasters after the collapse also need to be further repaired to improve the safety of use. Therefore, according to the applicant's invention, a method for repairing the ecology of geological disaster areas in mining areas using coal gangue was invented, which solves the problem that landslides and collapse risks will occur when rainwater erosion occurs. The geological disasters after the collapse also need to be further repaired to prevent dangers during use. Summary of the Invention

[0036] Step 3: Waterproof protection: Lay a geomembrane or asphalt waterproof layer between the middle layer and the surface layer to prevent the leakage of harmful substances from the coal gangue and pollute the surrounding environment. Drainage ditches need to be opened to allow water to circulate in designated locations to reduce the risk of collapse caused by accumulation;

[0037] Step 4: Slope solidification: Use steel mesh to anchor the filler or spray concrete to further enhance the anti-scouring ability and improve the firmness of the slope, making it less susceptible to rainwater erosion;
