Abstract
Some features of the recent seismotectonic activity manifestation within the Soligorsk mining region are considered. A map showing the seismodynamic events recorded in the Soligorsk mining region within 1983–2021 was created. A comprehensive method based on long-term monitoring of seismic events was used to describe the recent seismogeodynamic activity manifestation in the region. It was established that the earthquake arrangement along the fault lines was non-uniform in space and time. The investigations performed were used to determine the seismotectonic potential of seismically active fault zones in the Soligorsk mining region.
