Abstract: In the construction process of water-rich underground mine，the advanced water probing is an important security measure for the mine and the basis for support design.The traditional way commonly adopts drilling，which needs a tedious working process and occupies the tunnel face for a long time so the construction and tunneling speed is greatly influenced.In order to improve the efficiency，various geophysical methods such as TSP，geological radar，infrared detection，high density electric method are compared with each other.According to the actual situation of the mine，the high-density potential method was used for advanced detection and compared with the reality after tunneling.The comparison indicated that the high-density potential method is practical in applications with relatively wide detection range and accurate and reliable detection results.This advanced detection technology is recommended to be promoted in the mine.

Key words: High density electrical resistivity method, Advanced detection, Water gushing
