Abstract
To detect and to locate the frequently occurring rockbursts within the mining area at Grangesberg, Sweden, the mining company has installed a local network of geophones. Mathematical technique is presented for hypocentre determination assuming a constant velocity model and a three-dimensional network of geophones with high-speed recording. Two sets of input data are feasible: 1) relative P arrival times; 2) S minus P arrival times. The former set requires readings from at least five geophones; for the latter readings from four geophones are sufficient. Factors influencing the resulting location accuracy are studied in various examples. General conclusions and recommendations are given.-Author
