The research aim was achieved on the basis of seismic data, acquired from seismograms, of 10 strong seismic events of magnitude greater than 2.6. They were recorded by a pair of seismometers deployed on mining terrain. In the first stage, the Rayleigh wave between seismometers was estimated. Then, the group velocity dispersion curves of fundamental and first higher modes were identified. Finally, inversion of the dispersion curves to a 1D S-wave velocity model up to 500 m in depth was obtained. The velocity model was determined for the part of the rock mass partially affected by mining. The results confirm similar rock mass structure and velocities of the subsurface layers as those obtained by the archival 3D model. In both models, a high degree of correlation in the boundary location between the overburden of the Cenozoic formations and the bedrock of the Triassic formations was observed. The applied methodology can be used to estimate the S-wave velocity model in other mining regions characterized by strong seismicity. date: 2018-09 date_type: published publication: Journal of Sustainable Mining publisher: Elsevier id_number: doi:10.1016/j.jsm.2018.09.001 issn: 23003960 official_url: http://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsm.2018.09.001 access_IS-EPOS: limited owner: Publisher acknowledgments2: IS-EPOS_platform citation: Czarny, Rafał and Pilecki, Zenon and Drzewińska, Dorota (2018) The application of seismic interferometry for estimating a 1D S-wave velocity model with the use of mining induced seismicity.
