简要回顾了煤矿地质透明化的提出背景，诠释了煤矿地质透明化的技术内涵，辨析了地质透明化与可视化、透明地质与透明矿井等异同，重点阐述了煤矿地质透明化三大典型应用场景、实现路径和关键技术,其中超前钻孔地质透明化是利用开孔定向、钻孔测量、岩屑录井、钻孔成像和钻孔物探等技术与装备，以钻孔纵向钻探控制、径向物探扫描的方式，从而实现钻孔“线状”地质透明化；掘进巷道地质透明化是以长掘长探、随掘随探、反射槽波等关键技术为支撑,实现掘进巷道前方、侧帮一定范围的超前探测，达到巷道“束状”地质透明化的目的；回采工作面地质透明化是以随采地震、随采电法、微震监测等核心技术为支撑，将静态、动态、实时地质探测成果与采掘工程揭露信息相互融合,形成沿回采推进方向的采面“带状”地质透明化。随着“超前钻孔-掘进巷道-回采工作面”的递进透明,煤矿采掘地质条件将分时段、分区段、分层级趋于地质透明化。分析认为：地质可视化只是地质透明化的图形化显示，地质可视化并非地质透明化；透明矿井是透明地质的产物，透明地质是地质透明化的结果；煤矿地质透明化是静态与动态地质信息采集、地质信息与采掘工程信息互馈、三维地质模型构建、地质预测预报并与采掘工作面应用场景相互融合的时空动态实现过程。

This paper briefly reviews the background of coal mine geological transparency technology, and interprets its technical connotation. It discriminates the similarities and differences between geological transparency and visualization, transparent geology and transparent mines. It also focuses on the realization path and key technology of geological transparency in three typical application scenes in coal mine. Among these the geological transparency of advanced drilling is the use of drilling orientation, drilling measurement, cuttings logging, drilling imaging and drilling geophysical exploration and other technologies and equipment to control longitudinal drilling and radial geophysical exploration. The method of scanning can realize the 

“linear” geological transparency of borehole. The geological transparency of the roadway is supported by key technologies such as long excavation and long exploration, follow-up exploration, and reflected groove waves, so as to realize the front and side of the roadway. The advanced detection of the range achieves the goal of “beam-like” geological transparency of the roadway; the geological transparency of the mining face is supported by the core technologies such as mining-on-time seismic, mining-on-demand method, and microseismic monitoring, which integrates static, dynamic, and real-time geological detection results with the information disclosed in the mining engineering, forming the “band” geological transparency of the mining face along the[LM]advancing direction of mining. With the progressive transparency of “advance drilling-excavation roadway-mining face”, the geological conditions of coal mining will be divided into periods, sections and layers. The analysis shows that geological visualization is only a graphical display of geological transparency, and geological visualization is not geological transparency. Transparent mines are the products of transparent geology, which is the result of geological transparency. The transparency of coal mine geology is a time-space dynamic realization process of static and dynamic geological information collection, mutual feed of geological information and mining engineering information, construction of three-dimensional geological model, geological prediction and integration with mining face application scenarios.
