The Sungun copper deposit is located in about 40km north west of Ahar city in the east Azarbaigan province of Iran. The total geological ore deposit is estimated to be 740 million tons. In this study using all information from exploration and geotechnical studies of the area, final pit limits of Sungun copper deposit is designed by the 2-D Lerchs & Grossmann Algorithm. By this method, from 740 ...

Abstract Although research on seismic interferometry is now entering a phase of maturity, earthquakes are still the most troublesome issues that plague process in real applications. To address problems arise from spatially scattered and temporally transient enormous earthquakes, preference usually given to use time-dependent weights. However, small can also have disturbing effect accuracy inter...
