✦ Synopsis

Seismic methods have excellent depth penetration and resolving power for deep exploration in hardrock terranes. Through integrated case histories and introductory chapters on the basic principles of seismic acquisition, processing, modeling, and interpretation techniques, this book strikes a fine balance between tutorial, review, application, and future research directions, emphasizing the growing importance of seismic exploration methods in the hardrock environment ('old' techniques applied to 'new' target.). Researchers interested in high-resolution applications of crustal seismology, geophysicists involved with mineral exploration and development, geotechnical engineers, and seismic processors will find this book an invaluable aid in the challenges of seismic exploration of hardrock terranes.
