Research and assessment of the rock burst hazardous of the Kola Peninsula mineral deposits by seismic-acoustic monitoring data

Abstract

The results of geomechanical studies to assess the rock burst hazard at the deposits (Kukisvumchorr and Apatite Circus) of the Kola Peninsula are presented in the article. These results are obtained by special set of technical means, including an automated seismic acoustic rock pressure monitoring system "Prognoz-ADS"and a portable geoacoustic device "Prognoz L"developed at the Mining Institute of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Based on the measurement and analysis of the parameters of seismoacoustic events, reflecting the geomechanical processes in the mined rock mass, maps of seismoacoustic activity combined with 3D mining and geological models of mines were developed. Based on the analysis of the spectral parameters of the signals, it was concluded that the use of the developed software and hardware complex is promising for predicting dynamic phenomena in the rock massif. The rock burst hazard can be assessed by the measuring complexes at these deposits; necessary safety measures can be taken for decrease of geodynamic risk.
