Application of Acoustic Zoom's Experimental Non-Specular Seismic Imaging Technique for Defining Spatial Distribution of Discontinuities and Localized Features for Better Assessment of Ground Risks and Improved Safety in Mining Operations
EF 2018-19 · 2018-06-04
Résumé
Acoustic Zoom Inc., will be adapting its technology to deploy it inside an existing underground mining room in the Rocanville mine in Saskatchewan. This would entail employing a novel upward-looking seismic source coupled to the roof of the mine and placing receivers throughout the workings to create the antenna grouping along with advancements in signal processing protocols. The intent is to specifically demonstrate to the Potash Mining sector, that the AZ technology can characterize the "Winnipegosis" consolidation formation and to delineate the presence of various complex, poorly defined, mound anomalies which pose a geo-risk to safe mining activities.

Description
Acoustic Zoom Inc., will be adapting its technology to deploy it inside an existing underground mining room in the Rocanville mine in Saskatchewan. This would entail employing a novel upward-looking seismic source coupled to the roof of the mine and placing receivers throughout the workings to create the antenna grouping along with advancements in signal processing protocols.

Description (French)
Acoustic Zoom Inc. adaptera sa technologie pour la déployer dans une salle d’exploitation souterraine existante de la mine Rocanville en Saskatchewan. Ceci impliquerait d'employer une nouvelle source sismique orientée vers le haut couplée au toit de la mine et de placer des récepteurs tout au long des travaux pour créer le groupe d'antennes avec les progrès des protocoles de traitement du signal. L'intention est de démontrer spécifiquement au secteur des mines de potasse que la technologie AZ peut caractériser la formation de consolidation « Winnipegosis » et définir la présence de diverses anomalies complexes, mal définies, qui représentent un risque géologique pour des activités minières sécuritaires.
