2 PagesUse of a variable velocity model improves accuracy of microseismic analysis for caving applications An advanced 3-D raytracing velocity model was developed to account for complex geology and progression of the void during caving operations at a block cave mine in British Columbia. Implementation of the improved velocity model resulted in an approximately 50% reduction in microseismic event location error, enabling mine operators to more
