Abstract:
Microseismics – the detection and characterisation of mining-induced fracture events in the rockmass – is widely used to improve geotechnical understanding of the rockmass response to mining, and for hazard assessment of rockbursts and roof falls. These uses of microseismics require that the seismic events be accurately located, which can only be done using an accurate velocity model.
