Résumé
Currently, only microseismicity is used as a proxy for stress near deep mines. However, most of the physical properties of crystalline rocks are highly stress dependent. As such, the nonlinear and anisotropic variability of the in situ P- and S-wave velocities can potentially be linked directly to changes in the stress field. At an in-mine seismic laboratory, multi-component sensor arrays are deployed in multiple locations (3D) allowing for both controlled source and passive recordings. Previous in-mine seismic observatories have experienced a number of challenges with regards to sensitivity and longevity. Hence, the geothermally cool but highly stressed Sudbury mining camp offers a favourable setting for fundamental research in to time-lapse monitoring of seismicity, stress, and stress dependent physical properties at a deep mine.
