A Preliminary Investigation Into the Geotechnical Interpretation of Geophysical Logs
2004
Compares a full suite of downhole sondes against geotechnical core logging over the 5 m above three coal seams, for geologists and rock engineers assessing roof conditions.

Geophysical logging of boreholes above three Witbank seams identified clay rich matrices, stiffness changes, bedding planes and the principal stress direction, and picked up fractures in 30 to 75 per cent of cases. Core logging found most of the same features faster, so routine use was not recommended unless stiffness and stress direction matter.
Coal Washability Using Coal Petrography
2019
Summary of postgraduate work validating washability prediction for southern African coals by image analysis and tomography, written for geologists, metallurgists and mining engineers valuing a deposit.
What this report foundA single float sink test destroys the sample and gives one deterministic answer, so it cannot show how washability changes with particle size distribution.
R1500,00
A single float sink test destroys the sample and gives one deterministic answer, so it cannot show how washability changes with particle size distribution. Simulating washability from petrographic images and tomography allows many size distributions to be tested statistically from one sample. Running simulation alongside float sink work during exploration lets the prediction error of each be compared.
