Instantaneous-phase is the optimum attribute to use in horizontal seismic time slices for rapid, accurate 3-D structural mapping, because of its enhancement of event continuity. Instantaneous-phase slices also provide the interpreter with the most precise display for directly interpreting spatial relationships between seismic sequences, by reasoning analagous to that used to interpret geological maps. In contrast, amplitude time slices lack precision because weak events are lost by scaling, and wavelet phase points can only be crudely estimated.

The first period lasted from 1929, the start of exploitation, until 1986, when the water-protective barrier collapsed and the largest VKMKS mine, the 3rd Berezniki mine, was flooded. The second period began in 1986 and continues to the present day. The first period is characterized by a low level of technogenic load on the geological environment, significantly less than its long-term strength. After 60 years of VKMKS large-scale exploitation, the technogenic

AbstractThe Posada–Asinara Line is a crustal-scale transpressive shear zone affecting the Variscan basement in northern Sardinia during Late Carboniferous time. We investigated a structural transect of the Posada–Asinara Line (Baronie) with the aid of geological mapping and structural analysis. N-verging F2 isoclinal folds with associated mylonitic foliation (S2) are the main deformation features developed during the Posada–Asinara Line activity (D2). The mineral assemblages and microstructures suggest that the Posada–Asinara Line was affected by a retrograde metamorphic path. This is also con

Abstract. Identification of high potential risk and susceptible zones for natural hazards of geological origin is one of the most important applications of advanced remote sensing technology. Yearly, several landslides occur during heavy monsoon rainfall in Kelantan River basin, Peninsular Malaysia. Flooding and subsequent landslide occurrences generated significant damage to livestock, agricultural produce, homes and businesses in the Kelantan River basin. In this study, remote sensing data from the recently launched Landsat-8 and Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar-2 (PALSAR-2)

High resolution airborne geophysical data over broad areas have been found to optimize exploration for epithermal gold deposits in differing geological environments.Genetic exploration models may be tested in favourable sites by the recognition of geophysical signatures.

Abstract Detailed geological surveys carried out recently on the Layens have permitted to redefine the lithostratigraphy and to establish the structure of its south slope where several rockslides have been precisely located. This south slope is composed of a carbonaceous Mesozoic series ranging from the Triassic up to the Lower Cretaceous which is located on the reverse flank of a large overfolded north north-eastern syncline. The lithological and structural heritage, together with its special geodynamic setting, generate many brittle zones which favour the mechanical instability of the slope.

Horizontal profiles can be carried out in accessible drifts at the margin of the mine. The salt structure has mainly been explored from the surface by seismic measurements and boreholes.
