What this report found

Geotechnical factors affecting secondary extraction were identified from interviews with collieries already re-mining pillars and with people experienced in stooping, then quantified and ranked against the different aspects of the work. No single factor governs the outcome. Factors interact, so choosing a method and working safely in old workings depends on managing them together across disciplines.

Multi-client Aeromagnetic Data Merge & Interpretation – Witbank Coalfield

What this report found

Government and industry aeromagnetic data over the Witbank Coalfield were merged into one set of maps and GIS compatible files, and roughly 1200 dyke traces were interpreted from them. Purchase of a 200 m line spacing government survey removed the need for infill flying. One participating company valued advance knowledge of a single underground dyke at about R15 million.
