The invention relates to the technical field of underground surveying, and provides a coal mine working face fault prediction method. The method comprises: using a coal mine trough wave seismic transmission reflection exploration method to explore a fault in a recoverable working face; using the roadway exposing information to verify a fault property of the fault in the recoverable working face, and using the roadway exposing information to evaluate the three-dimensional seismic data, and acquiring the fault property of the fault in a mining area according to the evaluated three-dimensional seismic data; counting faults similar to the fault property in the recoverable working face in the faults in the mining area according to the fault property of the fault in the mining area, linearly fitting the acquired faults, and predicting faults in the adjacent working face according to the roadway exposing information and the fault property of the fault linearly fitted in the mining area. The invention can carry out advanced remote prediction of the adjacent working face, and facilitates optimizing the reasonable arrangement of the adjacent working face in advance.
