MONITORING WEAK ROCKMASS OVERVIEW The Gosowong Gold Operation is located on Halmahera Island, about 2,450 kilometres northeast of the national capital, Jakarta. It is an epithermal gold deposit with additional occurrences of silver. The mine uses a combination of cut-and-fill and long hole open stoping (LHOS) mining methods. Currently, PT. Nusa Halmahera Minerals operates two […]
READ MORENew Atmospheric Correction for Slope Stability Radar
GroundProbe’s Head of Research & Development, Pat Bellett GroundProbe’s Co-Founder, Dr Glen Stickley Precision Atmospherics® sees a significant advancement in controlling atmospheric clutter that is typically associated with interferometric slope monitoring radar. Atmospherics can make user interpretation and the setting of geotechnical alarms non-intuitive and difficult, especially when trying to avoid unwanted alarms. As the […]
