IGM Geotechnical
As mines across the world become increasingly deeper, the probability of the occurrence of large seismic events increases, which impacts the safety and economical risks for these mines. Unfortunately, the mitigation of seismic risk is complex and requires both an in-depth seismic and geotechnical understanding of the rock mass.
IGM Geotechnical have both the skills and understanding to help seismically active mines address the concern of seismicity. The services we offer includes data quality checks, seismic analysis, back-analysis of trends, investigation of control measures, and the description of the current seismic hazard state.
IGM Geotechnical is focused on providing a service where the customer’s needs are met, and the work we carry out makes a difference to the operation.
