ABOUT THE FLOWCHART


This Seismic Risk Management Practices flowchart has been developed and verified during the benchmarking exercise[link to About Website]. The process has four major activities, each represented by a coloured area in the flowchart:
As our methods and our understanding of mining-induced seismicity improve, so too will our risk management practices.

Within each activity, there are a number of components, represented by boxes in the flowchart. Within each box, a number of practices have been benchmarked and will be discussed in terms of being a “basic” or an “advanced” practice.

About the Website

With the support of Newcrest Mining Limited (Newcrest), the Australian Centre for Geomechanics (ACG) undertook a survey to obtain a cross-section of the seismic risk management practices used in underground hard rock mines around the world. The survey included contributions from 16 mine sites around the world (Participants). The results of this survey were compiled and are made available through this website.

This website provides an overview of what is being done - it is by no means an indication of what should be done.

As our methods and our understanding of mining-induced seismicity improve, so too will our risk management practices.
