Description
An Introduction to Mining Seismology describes comprehensively the modern methods and techniques used to monitor and
study seismicity and rockbursts in mines. Key case histories from various worldwide mining districts clearly illustrate and skillfully
emphasize the practical aspects of mining seismology. This text is intended as a handbook for geophysicists and mining and rock mechanics
engineers working at mines. It will also serve as an essential reference tool for seismologists working at research institutions on
local seismicity not necessarily induced by mining.
Audience
Graduate students and researchers in seismology, mining, and rock mechanics.
