Abstract: Based on the analysis of gas and geological data in Huaibei Mining Area, the influence of structure and evolution on gas occurrence in Huaibei Mining Area was studied with the theory of the tectonic control on gas occurrence. The results showed that the gas occurrence was strictly controlled by the structure in Huaibei Mining Area, which was mainly controlled by the EW direction, NE-NNE direction and Xusu arc structure. The EW direction structure had little influence on the gas occurrence; The NE-NNE direction structure was the main controlling structure which affected the gas occurrence in Huaibei Mining Area. The characteristics of the influence of the Xusu arc structure on the gas occurrence (Anhui segment) showed that serious coal and gas outburst appeared in the two wings and severe weathering of the coal seam appeared in central.
