Error: Invalid title in link at line 18.

A Seismic Risk Management Practices flowchart has been developed and verified during the benchmarking exercise. The process has four major activities, each represented by a coloured area in the flowchart:

  • Data collection (purple)
  • Seismic response to mining (green)
  • Control measures (blue)
  • Seismic risk assessment (orange)

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.

Purpose of Project

Seismic Risk Management in underground hard rock mines is a very important and complex task. 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. The content of this website will be updated in the future. This is just the start!

Please feel free to send us an email if you wish to contribute content, share ideas, or discuss any errors.
