Abstract: In order to achieve the harmony of ecological environment in the multi-resource collaborative exploration and development of coal basins,this paper proposes the concept and basic configuration of coal eco-geological survey based on the resources and environmental geological characteristics of coal basins. Under the guidance of coal geology and ecology theories,in coal eco-geological exploration,it needs to analyze the mineral resources that are deposited in the “four states” of solid,liquid,gas and elements,key layers of surface and underground space,local ecological environ- ment and ecosystems,using integrated ground-air-space exploration techniques. Its scope refers to the relevant geolog- ical and ecological exploration work of resource exploration,mining geological work,resource development and environ- mental protection, comprehensive utilization of resources, ecological restoration and ecosystem reconstruction, which runs through the entire process from coal resource exploration and development to the shutdown and reuse of coal mines. Coal eco-geological survey is an important direction of coal geological survey in the future,and its core ideology is the priority of ecological protection. Based on the concept of coal eco-geological survey,the basic configuration of coal eco-geological survey is further established,focusing on the main geographical elements and geological information about coal-derived mineral resources,water resources and geological key layers,as well as environmental protection, monitoring and ecological restoration as the object. It is urgent to promote the transformation of coal geological survey to eco-geological survey by considering the resource security,environmental protection and ecological construction. This study also suggests that coal eco-geological survey should coordinate the relationship between resource security and ec- ological environment,advance planning layout,and preferably use integrated ground-air-space green survey technolo- gies covering remote sensing,rapid precision drilling,and high-precision geophysical exploration. The collaborative ex- ploration mode of coal and other mineral resources should be selected according to the resource characteristics of coal basins. Typical modes include the bi-objective,tri-objective and tetra-objective collaborative exploration. Meanwhile, the implementation of environmental protection and ecological restoration measures depends on the changes of geolog- ical key layers and eco-environment information in the whole process of resource exploration,resource exploitation and post-mining restoration. Moreover,after adopting the technology of geological data analysis,the survey results demon- strated by multidimensional data can be integrated. Finally,the transparency and digitization of various mineral re- sources,environmental geological information and the geological conditions for resource development can be achieved.
