The process of borehole drilling is a nonlinear and many dimensional process. During drilling it is possible occurrence of some complications (for example transition of drilling tool in layer with anomalous pressure). New method of identification of rock layers with anomalous pressure was proposed and tested on real plant data.

Variations in rock fragmentation are very likely to occur a sublevel-caving operation. This study conducted comprehensive test an iron ore mine monitor fragmentation. The results show clear trend variations from start end of production ring. These suggest increase coarse and oversized fragments with increasing material extraction the rings that can be linked increased overburden drill hole devi...

Both shipboard and shore-based magnetic studies of Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 208 sediments produced poor-quality irectional data. A noisy inclination signal and a pervasive declination bias demonstrate that the sediments had been remagnetized nd/or deformed. In an attempt to characterize any deformation, we carried out anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) experments on a suite of ...
