abstract: The increased need for energy and minerals requires a variety of complex industrial processes to be performed under more and more difficult environmental conditions. The problem of hazards induced by exploration and exploitation of georesources focuses growing interest by science, industry, public administration, NGO-s and general public. This is especially true in the densely populated Europe, where such technological activities take place close to inhabited and other protected areas. Anthropogenic seismicity, i.e. the undesired dynamic rockmass response to georesources exploitation, is one of the examples of unwanted by-products of technological occupation of humans. It becomes a real problem in areas previously known as aseismic and in association with quite diverse technological processes. The induced earthquakes accompany underground and open-pit mining, both conventional as well as unconventional hydrocarbon exploitation, impoundment of surface reservoirs of liquids, geothermal energy production, underground fluid and gas storage and many other technological processes that perturb the boundary conditions in the affected rockmass. The socio-economic impact of the induced seismicity is very significant. Induced earthquakes can cause material loss, injuries and even fatalities. ...
