Abstract: This article describes the process and results of applying a new, quantitative version of what is, in the Polish mining industry, a well-known, so-called Comprehensive Method of Rockburst Hazard Evaluation (CMRHE). The CMRHE is composed of four “particular methods” (i.e. mining seismology, seismoacoustics, drilling, and the partly subjective “expert method of hazard evaluation”). Despite its popularity, CMRHE is not well defined in the mathematical sense. The subject, i.e. the rockburst hazard, is not quantitatively (or otherwise) well defined within the CMRHE Instructions or the four particular methods. In fact, the CMRHE tries to predict an undefined subject, and there is no guarantee that the particular methods attempt to identify the same (undefined) hazard. It is not clear how the four particular results should be combined to arrive at the final hazard prediction.
