The Yanzhou coalfield is an important coal production base in north China, wherein a huge amount of mine drainage has occurred; however, there has been relatively little research on the multi-layer groundwater system. In this study, the Dongtan Coal Mine was considered as the research object and a total of 95 samples were collected. Furthermore, hydrogeochemical and statistical methods were employed to better understand the hydrogeochemical characteristics of the groundwater system in the Yanzhou coalfield. The results show that the groundwater in the area is alkaline. The Ordovician limestone aquifer is quite different from the other aquifers, and the karst herein shows regional distribution characteristics. During the hydrogeochemical evolution of the groundwater, more carbonate and sulfate dissoluted, more cation exchanged, and a lesser extent of silicate weathering and halite dissolution occurred. A conceptual hydrogeological model was created. It shows that the changes in the drainage conditions further resulted in the water chemistry being complex, and induced the hydrogeochemical evolution. The changes in the groundwater dynamic field and the hydrochemical field should be studied to better understand the evolution of the hydrogeochemical properties and accordingly make preparations for preventing mine water disasters and environmental pollution.
