ABSTRACT After conducting a successful GPR pilot study in a tectonically complex area of the Karst Thrust Edge, a follow-up study was carried out. In the pilot study, the geometry and spatial extent of the Socerb thrust-fault, which separates limestone above from flysch below, were investigated using a 50 MHz antenna in the Črnotiče quarry. After one part …

However, two sections show dipole dispersion crossovers that confirm the presence of stress‐induced shear anisotropy caused by a difference between the maximum and minimum stresses in the plane perpendicular to the well trajectory. The two dipole dispersions are obtained by processing the recorded waveforms by a modified matrix …

A new limestone aggregate quarry was planned along the bank of the Cumberland River in western Kentucky. Prior to opening the quarry a detailed understanding of subsurface conditions were needed to properly design and plan quarry operations to ensure long term operational and economic viability. ... The geophysical data were modeled to provide ...

ABSTRACT Electromagnetic signals from distant radio transmitters in the frequency range 15–250 kHz were measured to model an electrical resistivity structure beneath 7 profiles in the vicinity of the Karinu limestone quarry in Estonia with the aim to map the extent of the economically exploitable limestone. The resistivity models from a …

Therefore, the prediction of ground vibration components plays an important role in the minimization of environmental complaints. In this study, 582 events were recorded during limestone production at a quarry (Akyol Quarry) during a period of time. The blasting parameters of these shots were also carefully recorded.

A quarry is a place where rocks, sand, or minerals are extracted from the surface of Earth.A quarry is a type of mine called an open-pit mine, because it is open to Earth's surface.Another type of mine, a subsurface mine, consists of underground tunnels or shafts.. The most common purpose of quarries is to extract stone for building materials. …

The lithology logs show a strong correlation with the geophysical data and show how dramatically the subsurface geology can vary between boreholes just a few metres apart. ..., (2019), "Karst away - Geophysical surveys for resource development of a limestone quarry," Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Engineering and …

Quarrying of Stones. Definition: Stones occur in the form of natural rock masses or layers on the surface. The process of extraction of suitable stones from their natural rock beds or layers is commonly called Quarrying of Stones.. It differs from the mining of ores of metals in that whereas quarrying is an operation carried out entirely on the surface, mining …
