The main seismic method, which ensure safety of mining on the water soluble mineral deposits is common midpoint method. We suggest new techniques in the field of integration seismic and seismoacoustics on the shallow dephts. Applying of suggesting techniques is shown while studying structure and characteristics of waterproof layer at Verhnekamskoe potash deposit. Surface and mine seismic researches with using CDP observations are the main instruments for probable nature and technical origin hazards in water protective pillar limits predictions. Possibility of the most information receiving is in common using surface and mining seismic researches. Example of such kind complex interpretation is presenting. Traditional field of use of borehole seismic is parametric supply for processing and interpretation of surface seismic CMP, but also it can be used in detailed elaboration of borehole environment. Integration of vertical seismic profiling on the reflection waves and surface shallow seismic CMP is presented. 3D seismic is widely use in oil and gas industry. The question of applying 3D seismic on shallow depths is controversial. Parameters for 3D spread are calculated for estimating possibilities such system while solving geological and mining problems on Verhnekamskoe potash deposit.
