Photogrammetry survey for an open pit gold mine
SRK carried out field mapping and photogrammetry of the entire White Foil open pit in order to carry out structural characterisation of the major faults and joint sets, and to provide suggested geotechnical domaining of the pit. The final dataset included multi-scale data from bench scale window mapping of low persistence structures, to overall slope scale mapping of rock mass blocks bounded by major faults. SRK also analysed the crest loss contributors.
Scope of services:
- Mapping and photogrammetry investigations
