This paper summarizes seismic and rockburst research activities related to South African deep-level gold mines over the period 1983 to 1987. It covers continued research in directions that were considered in the Seismicity in Mines Symposium in 1982 as well as in several new areas of research. Five broad areas are identified:
  1. Seismic data acquisition and processing. Improved seismic systems are being developed. Velocity models related to known stratigraphy are being used to provide more accurate estimates of seismic locations.
  2. Source mechanisms and near-source effects on seismic wave transmission. This work provides fundamental insights into seismicity and rock behaviour and is being applied in rockburst prediction research.
  3. Mine layouts. Excess shear stress is being investigated as a design parameter by analyzing mining configurations and resultant seismicity. In addition, better understanding of the behaviour of highly stressed remnants and pillars is also being obtained from seismic studies.
  4. Strong ground motion studies. Evaluation of the performance of support elements, including recently developed backfill materials, requires better knowledge of ground motion around underground excavations during seismic events and rockbursts.
  5. Rockburst prediction and control. Rockburst prediction research continues with some reported success. In addition, the feasibility of actively triggering fault slip or conditioning the rock ahead of the stope face to ameliorate the rockburst hazard is currently being investigated.

Since the collision of Indian subcontinent to Eurasia, a huge quantity of crustal materials from India has been penetrated into the crust or mantle of Eurasia. Investigation of the place, on which those materials have been deposited is a key problem for constructing a model of collision between continents. The results of three-dimensional seismic velocity structure obtained from seismic tomography technique may provide an evidence of the deposit of anomalous materials in the crust and upper mantle of the Tibetan Plateau and its neighboring areas. A detailed analysis of the results from the seismic surface wave tomography has deduced a new model of the continental collision from India to Eurasia. It is compatible to the velocity data obtained from other geological and geophysical observations. The main points of the new model of the continental collision from Indian to Eurasia can be summarized as follows:
  1. The Indian crust has been penetrating into the lower crust of Tibetan Plateau, instead of into the uppermost mantle beneath the crust or the asthenosphere of Tibetan Plateau;
  2. The surplus materials from the Tibetan lower crust have been squeezed and thrusted into the asthenosphere of its eastern neighboring areas (Qinghai-Sichuan-Yunnan) through the broken Moho;
  3. Some hot materials were intruded into the crust from the uppermost mantle in Tibetan Plateau and Sichuan-Yunnan provinces. The intruded hot materials may reach the ground surface (such as the Tibetan Plateau) or a depth about 25 km (such as Sichuan-Yunnan provinces) depending on the different local environmental conditions. The extensional geological structures in those regions are closely related to the intrusion of hot materials.

Research on the principle and methodology of seismic zonation   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Based on the cognizance of the temporal-spatial inhomogeneity of seismicity in North China, adopting the results of earthquake prediction in the past two decades and the currently used methods of seismic hazard analysis, and after some zonation trials in North China, some improvements on the zonation principle and methodology were made:
  1. Seismic zones were taken as statistic units where seismicity parameters were obtained. Tendency analysis was introduced. Earthquake annual average occurrence rates were estimated corresponding to the seismicity level in the future period;
  2. Average annual earthquake occurrence rates for a given magnitude interval of a specific seismic zone were assigned to potential sources considering the relative risk level among these sources. Thus, the risk of great earthquakes can be estimated.
  3. The probabilistic spatial distribution function under the condition of magnitude interval was suggested to reflect the temporal and spatial inhomogeneity of seismicity.
  4. An orientation function in the seismic hazard analysis model was adopted, which reflects the real condition of earthquake foci in China.

Microearthquake digital data collected at Campi Flegrei during the recent (1982–1985) ground uplift episode have been analyzed in order to infer source and medium seismic properties. The main results obtained from these analyses are:
  1. Hypocenter distribution and the size of the seismic zone do not change with time and do not depend on the ground uplift rate. Events occurred clustered in time with no simple causal relations between the cluster occurrences and their energy.
  2. Anelastic attenuation does not depend strongly on frequency, showing a constant pattern at high frequencies. The observed values of low and high frequency attenuation, due to the short source receiver distances, do not seriously affect the spectral content of signals radiated by the sources.
  3. A constant Brune stress drop pattern (~4–5 bars) as a function of seismic moment is observed. This indicates that the manner of fracturing is almost independent on magnitude of earthquakes (hypothesis of self-similarity (Aki, 1967)). Seismic processes in a prefractured medium can explain the observed small stress drop values.
  4. Focal mechanisms from moment tensor estimates show that radiation patterns are mostly well interpreted in terms of double couple source models.
  5. The scaling of peak ground motion parameters (A max andV max vs seismic moment) can be explained by an ω2 source model (constant stress drop) multiplied by an exponential function with a small decay parameter, which takes into account the measured attenuation.
These results support the hypothesis of earthquakes generated by simple shear fractures along prefractured structures as a response to changes in the stress field due to the ground deformation.  相似文献

    Currently, numerical simulations of seismic channel waves for the advance detection of geological structures in coal mine roadways focus mainly on modeling twodimensional wave fields and therefore cannot accurately simulate three-dimensional (3-D) full-wave fields or seismic records in a full-space observation system. In this study, we use the first-order velocity–stress staggered-grid finite difference algorithm to simulate 3-D full-wave fields with P-wave sources in front of coal mine roadways. We determine the three components of velocity Vx, Vy, and Vz for the same node in 3-D staggered-grid finite difference models by calculating the average value of Vy, and Vz of the nodes around the same node. We ascertain the wave patterns and their propagation characteristics in both symmetrical and asymmetric coal mine roadway models. Our simulation results indicate that the Rayleigh channel wave is stronger than the Love channel wave in front of the roadway face. The reflected Rayleigh waves from the roadway face are concentrated in the coal seam, release less energy to the roof and floor, and propagate for a longer distance. There are surface waves and refraction head waves around the roadway. In the seismic records, the Rayleigh wave energy is stronger than that of the Love channel wave along coal walls of the roadway, and the interference of the head waves and surface waves with the Rayleigh channel wave is weaker than with the Love channel wave. It is thus difficult to identify the Love channel wave in the seismic records. Increasing the depth of the receivers in the coal walls can effectively weaken the interference of surface waves with the Rayleigh channel wave, but cannot weaken the interference of surface waves with the Love channel wave. Our research results also suggest that the Love channel wave, which is often used to detect geological structures in coal mine stopes, is not suitable for detecting geological structures in front of coal mine roadways. Instead, the Rayleigh channel wave can be used for the advance detection of geological structures in coal mine roadways.  相似文献

    Liparitic volcanism is a typical feature of the orogenic phase giving rise to the Kazakhstan, Middle Asia and Caucasus folded systems. The main characteristics of the liparitic volcanism common to these three regions are the following:
    1. Geo-structural zonation of the volcanic structures.
    2. Dismembered Moho surface within the volcanic structures.
    3. Synchronous, yet independent evolution of liparitic and andesitic volcanisms.
    4. Ignimbritic character of the liparitic volcanism.
    5. Lateral petrochemical zonation with some features common to the liparitic and andesitic rock series.
    Geo-structural and petrochemical zonations are likely governed in the regions studied by a deep-seated plutonic body.  相似文献

    The relationship between the characteristics of seismic waves in the Western Caucasus and the geological-tectonic structure of the region is studied for identifying the specificity of seismic propagation in the mountainous regions with a complicated geological structure and forecasting the characteristics of the propagation from the geological and tectonic data. The interpretation is presented for the estimates of the Q-factor of the medium (Q(f) ~ 55f0.9 in the region of Sochi and Q(f) ~ 90f0.7 in the region of Anapa), seismic wave enhancement in the upper crustal layers (A(f) ~ 1), and peak ground acceleration residuals, which were previously determined from the records of the local earthquakes and show the distributions of local variations in the parameters of seismic wave radiation and propagation. The obtained characteristics are interpreted in the context of the up-to-date information about the tectonic, geological, and deep structure of the epicentral zones in the Western Caucasus and neighboring territory of the Black Sea. The discrepancies revealed in the low-frequency behavior of the Q-factor in the vicinities of Sochi and Anapa is accounted for by the spatial scale and character of tectonic dislocations of the rocks in these regions. The local variations in the parameters of seismic radiation and propagation are probably related to the geological features of the region such as the fault structures, including the thrusts, shatter zones, oblique seismic boundaries, variations in the thickness and consolidation of the sedimentary cover, as well as the peculiarities in the structure and material composition of the basement.  相似文献

    Origin of rhyolites by anatectic melting of granitic crustal rocks   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
    Rhyolitic pumice deposits on some East Aegean Islands are the remnants of a tuff sheet which covered formerly more than 2500 km2. The rhyolites originated by melting of granitic crustal rocks. The petrological properties leading to this conclusion are as follows:
  • -mineralogical composition of the pumice being 60 wt % of glass and 40 % of relictic granitic minerals (quartz, plagioclase, potash feldspar, biotite) in «phenocrysts» up to 1 cm Ø.
  • -phenomena of strong corrosion, resorption and melting of all light colored «phenocrysts» in the rhyolitic pumice.
  • -mineralogical and chemical identity between pumice and granitic xenolites found in great quantity in the pumice tuff.
  • -structurally transitional types between pumice and the granites in different state of melting.
  • -eutectic composition of the pumice glass for a pressure of 2 kb.

    The Ridracoli Dam has been operating since 1981. Around the reservoir ISMES installed and operated for 10 years a seismic network, now reduced to a 3-D station. Earthquakes were recorded with completeness from magnitude 0.8 onwards. In the same period, all the parameters relevant to the dam and the environment were measured. This provided a complete data base for RIS studies, unique in its kind in Italy. The main findings of the analyses performed are the following:
    1. The filling of the reservoir has not influenced the seismicity of the area for most significant events (M L>3.5).
    2. Lesser seismicity around the reservoir seems to be correlated with water level in the reservoir, but also shows to be dependent on regional seismicity.
    3. b value shows a slight increase with time. This may indicate an increase in rock fracturing, which is known to precede the disappearing of Type II RIS.

    Results obtained by means of an ultrasonic current meter in the plume of the Rhone river are summarized as follows:
    1. Currents of Rhone river water entering the lake were clearly discernible up to a distance of about 1 km from the river mouth. The interflow was observed at depth of 10 to 30 m.
    2. Interflow velocities decreased with increasing distance from the river mouth: from 40cm/s at a distance of 350 m to about 15 cm/s at 1 km.
    3. Short-term variations of current velocities and directions documented the highly turbulent nature of the interflow.
    4. The entering river water (inflow direction to the NNW) interfered with a persisting northeastward current of the lake water. At a distance of 1–2 km from the mouth the interflow gradually assumed the same direction, possibly due to deflection by Coriolis forces.
    5. Current velocities showed considerable variations within a time scale in the order of hours at the same measuring position. The reasons for these fluctuations remain unclear. Possible causes may be lateral oscillations of the entering river water or its deviation by river mouth bars during periods of reduced river discharge. Variations of the discharge alone cannot explain these current fluctuations.

    Steam samples from six wells (Colombaia, Pineta, Larderello 57, Larderello 155, Gabbro 6, and Gabbro 1) in a south to north section across the Larderello geothermal field have been analyzed for inorganic and hydrocarbon gases and for oxygen-18 and deuterium of steam. The wells generally decrease in depth and increase in age toward the south. The steam samples are generally characterized by
    1. Total gas contents increasing south to north from 0.003 to 0.05 mole fraction;
    2. Constant CO2 (95±2 percent); near constant H2S (1.6±0.8), N2 (1.2±0.8), H2 (2±1), CH4 (1.2±1), and no O2 in the dry gas;
    3. Presence of numerous, straight chain and branched C2 to C6 hydrocarbons plus benzene in amounts independent of CH4 contents with highest concentrations in the deeper wells;
    4. Oxygen-18 contents of steam increasing south to north from ?5.0‰ to ?0.4‰ with little change in deuterium (?42±2‰).
    These observations are interpreted as showing:
    1. Decreasing gas contents with amount of production because the proportion of steam boiled from liquid water increases with production;
    2. Synthesis of CH4 from H2 and CO2 with CO2 and H2 produced by thermal metamorphism and rock-water reactions;
    3. Extraction of C2 to C6 hydrocarbons from rock organic matter;
    4. Either oxygen isotope exchange followed by distillation of steam from the north toward the south (2 plates at ~220°C) or mixture of deeper more-exchange waters from the north with shallow, less-exchanged recharging waters from the south.

    Concentrations in uranium, thorium and potassium were determined by gamma spectrometry in more than 100 samples of volcanic rocks from the material obtained during the French-Italian expedition in Dankalia (Afar-Ethiopia) (December 1967 – February 1968). These samples were taken from two geographically distinct areas:
    1. the danakile depression (Erta Ale range, Pierre Pruvost massif, Alayta, Afdera, Borawlu).
    2. Ethiopian high lands (Adigrate — Axum).
    The values we obtained give the following contents:

    Dash

  • in the Erta Ale range, for basalts, K: 0,5%, U: 1,3 ppm, Th: 3,3 ppm, Th/U: 2,6.
  • for alkaline rhyolites, U: 4,1 ppm, K: 2,3%, Th: 15,2 ppm, Th/U: 3,7.
  • in the Pierre Pruvost massif, for acid rocks, K: 3,9%, U: 3,6 ppm, Th: 13,5 ppm, Th/U: 3,8.
  • in the Borawlu centre, K: 2,8%, U: 4,6 ppm, Th: 14,7, Th/U: 3,4 for the rhyolites, K: 0,6%, U: 0,9 ppm, Th: 3,1 ppm for the basalts.
  • on the Ethiopian high lands, for the Adigrate basaltic trap rocks, K: 0,6%, U: 0,6 ppm, Th: 1,1 ppm, Th/U: 1,7 and for the Axum zone of phonolitic pinnacles, K: 3,9%, U: 2,7 ppm, Th: 14,9 ppm, Th/U: 4,9.
  • The Th/K and U/K ratios are particularly high compared with the usual data, except for the Pierre Pruvost massif which seems to be different from the others. The difference of Th/U ratios for basic rocks and acid rocks is meaningful. For the magma which gave the volcanism of the studied area, one can think of an evolution more especially connected with transfers of volatile elements. The strong correlations existing between potassium, uranium and thorium probably indicate the presence of groups which are distinct from a geochemical point of view in the Dankalia lavas.  相似文献

    For most previous geomagnetic surveys, the time variations of the observatory closest to the site of observation have been used for reduction. The accuracy of repeat station measurements depends upon the distance between the station and the observatory. Nowadays, the requirements for the accuracy of repeat station measurements are much higher, especially with respect to local secular variation anomalies. On the other hand, transportable variograph stations are available, by means of which time variations can be recorded closer to the station site. The reduction steps for this method are:
    1. Reduction of measured values to the base-line of the nearby variograph station;
    2. Computation of the nearest quiet night value using the baseline of the variograph;
    3. Computation of the difference between this value and the corresponding one at the observatory.
    The problems are:
  • - the stability of the base-line values of the variographs;
  • - the question as to what degree a quiet night value represents the normal value at that time (e.g. influence of aD st field and/or other fields).
  • A repeat station survey of the Federal Republic of Germany was carried out in 1982. During the same time, eleven stations recorded the time variations in that area. We discuss the aforementioned aspects by way of an example taken from this survey.  相似文献

    Using an acoustic system in a 9 m deep enclosure, the daily vertical distribution patterns of whitefish larvae were studied from hatching to the age of two months. Four patterns of daily vertical distribution and migration were observed in accordance to different developmental stages:
    1. Newly hatched larvae dispersed in the enclosure during the day and congregated at the water surface at night.
    2. After 2 weeks of age larvae stayed close to the water surface during day and night.
    3. At 15 to 18 mm length, larvae showed distinct vertical migration at dawn and dusk, they stayed close to the surface during the day and dispersed at night.
    4. At 28 mm length the depth pattern was reversed. These fish frequented greater depths during the day than at night.
    No relation was found between larval depth distribution or vertical migration and food availability or water temperature. Low levels of solar radiation triggered the dawn and dusk vertical migration behaviour of the more developed larvae. Possible reasons for the different behaviour patterns occurring over time are discussed.  相似文献

    The geological model about volcanism of the Green Tuff geosyncline deduced from the field observations consists of the following processes:
    1. Dome-shaped uplift with a mean diameter of 30 km.
    2. Collapse of the central part of the domes forming basins with a mean diameter of 10 km.
    3. Volcanic activity inside the collapse basins. It is considered that these consecutive processes resulted from the magmatic uplift from a deep part of the crust.
    In finite element analyses performed as plane strain problems, earth's crust is assumed to be an elasto-plastic homogeneous layer and to undergo sinusoidal vertical displacement at the base of the layer due to an ascending magma reservoir. These analyses reveal that the diameter of the dome is proportional to the depth of the magma reservoir rather than to its size. The magma reservoir is estimated at 12 ~ 24 km in depth. Scale model experiments using powdered material were performed in order to reproduce a collapse basin. These three-dimensional models are reduced to a scale of 1:200,000 th of the natural size. The results of experiments show that radial and concentric cracks are produced on top of the dome and a central part encircled by concentric cracks collapses to form a basin. The boundary of the collapsed portion forms a steep cliff with a height of about 2 mm. This is equivalent to 400 m in natural size and is nearly similar to field observations.  相似文献

    Characterization of and correction for cultural noise   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
    Surveys of time varying electromagnetic fields result in time series consisting of signals and noise, the latter defined as that part of the data which cannot be explained by a theory. Man-made contributions to noise can be subdivided into active and passive sources and are complex in character. As Szarka has treated this topic extensively in a recent review paper (Szarka, 1988), only a few further examples are presented here. Following discussion of noise correction in transient electromagnetic investigations which consists mainly of sophisticated stacking and filter procedures, several aspects of its correction in magnetotelluric and geomagnetic depth sounding data are considered. These include:
    1. The methods of treatment of single time series in the presence of visible noise—its detection, removal and sometimes replacement by data predicted from undisturbed intervals.
    2. The investigation of time series interrelations. This is mainly coherence based and—if possible—takes advantage of remote reference techniques.
    3. The examination of the statistical properties of the time series by regression analysis. This leads to the weighting of time segments of data in order to achieve unbiased and minimum variance estimates based on identically and independently Gaussian distributed residuals.
    4. The application of constraints. These can further improve the estimates' quality.
    5. The use of simultaneously recorded multistation data. This can contribute remarkably to noise suppression as well as to the treatment of non-uniform source fields.
    6. Leveraging and confidence limits. Problems relating to the former have not yet been solved satisfactorily while the Jacknife method seems to be an easy way of determining the latter.
    Thanks to the modern processing techniques reviewed in this paper it should be possible to obtain a rather dense net of high quality data in spite of the world-wide increasing noise level. As most processing codes are widely accessible current problems are more related to availability of instruments, carrying out the measurements and reserving enough time for thorough data processing.  相似文献

    The various useful source-parameter relations between seismic moment and common use magnitude lg(M 0) andM s,M L,m b; between magnitudesMs andM L,M s andm b,M L andm b; and between magnitudeM s and lg(L) (fault length), lg (W) (fault width), lg(S) (fault area), lg(D) (average dislocation);M L and lg(f c) (corner frequency) have been derived from the scaling law which is based on an “average” two-dimensional faulting model of a rectangular fault. A set of source-parameters can be estimated from only one magnitude by using these relations. The average rupture velocity of the faultV r=2.65 km/s, the total time of ruptureT(s)=0.35L (km) and the average dislocation slip rateD=11.4 m/s are also obtained. There are four strong points to measure earthquake size with the seismic moment magnitudeM w.
    1. The seismic moment magnitude shows the strain and rupture size. It is the best scale for the measurement of earthquake size.
    2. It is a quantity of absolute mechanics, and has clear physical meaning. Any size of earthquake can be measured. There is no saturation. It can be used to quantify both shallow and deep earthquakes on the basis of the waves radiated.
    3. It can link up the previous magnitude scales.
    4. It is a uniform scale of measurement of earthquake size. It is suitable for statistics covering a broad range of magnitudes. So the seismic moment magnitude is a promising magnitude and worth popularization.
