•Six surface seismic stations
were installed on Turtle Mountain in 2003/2004
•Measurements of small seismic
events are used to diagnose changes in the
structure of the mountain caused by rock
movement
An arrange of six surface
passive microseismic stations were installed on the east side of the mountain
as shown.The aim of this array was to
detect and source located microseismic events within the array that my be due
to slope movements or continued collapse of the underground coal workings
(abandoned).These stations were
installed in winter 2003/2004 and to this point have not provided reliable
results due to a variety of issues, including sensor frequency and
assumptions on the rock mass characteristics (and associated velocity
models).
