Knowledge of the in-situ stress conditions in mining areas is very necessary for scientific mining design and effective disaster control measures. The object of this article is to systematically introduce the in-situ stress measurement method and its implications in mining engineering, including mining design optimization, rockburst mechanism and prediction, stability control of surrounding rock, fault stability assessment, exploration and development of coalbed methane, coal and gas outburst prediction, evaluation of water inrush from coal floor, and high-stress rock breaking. The research results are of great significance to realize the safe, economic, and efficient recovery of mineral resources.
