Abstract. The Gorlovka coal field began to be intensively developed in the last ten years, and as a result, technogenic earthquakes began to occur in the area of ​​the cuts. The Kolyvan earthquake dated January 9, 2019, M = 4.3 – the largest of them and had a tangible impact on settlements including the city of Novosibirsk. This earthquake near Novosibirsk is the strongest in more than a hundred years and give away to strength Berdsk earthquake on 1882. Based on the analysis of seismicity, it is shown that for Novosibirsk the seismic danger of natural and man-made is close and differs in that catastrophic natural earthquakes will occur less frequently than man-made.

Keywords: Gorlovskaya cavity, Kolyvan mine, induced seismicity, seismic danger, earthquake recurrence law.
