Microseismic analysis to identify the caving front associated with cave mining operations in New South Wales A microseismic system was implemented at a block caving operation at Ridgeway gold mine in eastern Australia. Compared with geomechanical methods, the microseismic system reliably tracked the position of the caving front during ore extraction. Operated by Newcrest Mining Ltd., the Ridgeway gold mine uses a block-caving method to ex
