  • Mine Seismology: Seismic Response to the Caving Process

    A Case Study from Four Mines

    by S.N. Glazer ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book presents the results of seismic data analysis and interpretation based on nearly one million seismic events. This seismicity was induced by the caving process in four copper mines, each located on a different continent. The book not only serves as an interpretation guide, it also illustrates the benefits of evaluating data from different mines:How to establish which seismic data base is ... Read more
