High stress on brittle rock structures during mining operations can produce sudden, explosive reactions that result in costly mine failures, serious injury, and even death. Using a series of case studies, this essential reference documents the experiences of 15 of the most rockburst-prone mines in the US and Canada over the last century. The book provides an historical analysis of rockburst activity along with state-of-the-art strategies for anticipating and preventing this dangRock burstsNorth AmericaMines and mineral resourcesNorth AmericaGeologyNorth AmericaRock burstsMines and mineral resourcesGeology622/.28Blake Wilson1552601Hedley D.
