In this paper, we used tectonic dynamics theories to study the tectonic evolution characteristics of the Pingdingshan mine area, and analyzed the impact of tectonic progressive control on gas occurrence. The study results are as follows: the Pingdingshan mine area has been mainly controlled by multiple squeezing and shearing actions of the Qinling orogenic belt since early and middle Yanshan, forming the tectonic control characteristics of master control in two directions, namely NWW trending and NNE trending; the NWW trending structure is dominated by squeezing and shearing, while the NNE trending structure is dominated by tension. Progressively controlled by the structure, the gas occurrence presents partition and zonation, i.e. compared with the western structure, the eastern NWW–NW trending structure of the mine area is more highly developed, resulting in the mine area gas occurrence distribution characteristics are distinct in the east while indistinct in the west. Based on this, the mine area can be divided into the following two geological dynamic areas: the western half of mine area, namely the Guodishan fault control area, where the NW–SE trending synchronous tension action suffered by the northeast side (footwall) is relatively strong, and compared with the southwest side (hanging wall), its coal and gas outburst seriousness is weak; and the eastern half of mine area, namely the NWW–NW thrust nappe fracture fold control area, which is a serious area of coal and gas outburst, in particular the axial area of the Likou syncline is the intersection compound and combination position of the NW and NE trending structures, a tectonic concentrated area, and the gas pressure and content here are the largest.
