3-D In-Situ Stress Characterisation for Deep Mining

Our company provides in-situ stress characterisation services for mining and underground engineering projects using borehole breakout analysis, advanced acoustic emission (Kaiser effect) and deformation rate analysis (DRA) techniques. Based on trials at a NSW hard rock mine, our solution enables reliable estimation of the full three-dimensional stress tensor from oriented core samples, supporting mine design, ground-support optimisation, and seismic risk management. By delivering site-specific stress magnitude and orientation, our technology enhances excavation stability analysis, improves pillar and stope design, and reduces uncertainty in geotechnical modelling for deep and structurally complex mining environments.
