The intelligent mine represents a new direction in the integration of traditional mining with cutting-edge technologies, aiming to establish a full-chain digitalized system driven by the core technology of artificial intelli gence and machine learning. In China, the green construction of metal mines is advancing in coordination with intell gent technologies. Hwever. the safety of mining oper Pes seven enges due to the coL ple risk factors. This paper reviews the research progress or intelligent safety in metal mines, focusing on 3 major aspects: complex geological conc ns. eo nt-related safety risks, and potential risks of-hazard SOL es t discusses the current state of safetvhe specific applications of ligent technologies in addressing key risk factors. Moreover, the major challenges intelligen luding technical bottlenecks and equipment intelligence levels, icult s in data tegr and standardizatio on, and poor adaptability to deep mining and complex environments. In response, the study prospects the development of intelligent and safe technolo-gies in meta cu: independent novation in core technologies and equipment upgrades, data-driven collaboralive conlro ar nd standardization, and enhanced adaptability to extreme conditions in deep mining.
