“…At present, scholars mainly study environmental and technical fields, and the research content is mainly about the whole process of mine dust generation, diffusion, and reduction. The research hotspots are mainly mine dust pollution, dust control and dust reduction measures, occupational protection for miners, and dust monitoring and prevention [13]. Qiu et al [14] point out that the structural deformation of the workplace due to deep operations causes dust to appear in all operational aspects of the work environment.…”

With the depletion of shallow mineral resources, deep shaft mining has become an inevitable trend, but there is a lack of systematic review on the hazards of deep shaft mining ecological environment on miners' occupational health. The aim of this paper is to study the impact and main hazards of deep shaft mining ecological environment on miners' occupational health, summarize the existing research results and reveal their limitations, and put forward the latest targeted improvement technologies. The conclusions show that the environmental characteristics of deep mine dust, noise, and high temperature seriously jeopardize occupational health. Pneumoconiosis has become one of the biggest threats, with nearly 14,000 new cases per year since 2009; harmful noise exposure is widespread in deep mines, directly jeopardizing occupational health, with a detection rate of 29.96% of hearing impairment among China's 480,200,000 miners; and the average ground temperatures at the current mining depths of -1,000 m and -2,000 m are 41.84ºC and 69.62ºC, respectively, which are very likely to trigger a variety of heat-related diseases in miners. Miners with a variety of heat-related illnesses. The hazards of these environmental features are seriously underestimated.
