“…Importantly, the location, frequency, and source parameters of seismic events provide mining engineers with valuable information (J. P. Liu, et al., 2019; Ma et al., 2018a; Tierney & Morkel, 2017; Wang et al., 2019). For instance, this includes the in‐situ stress level (Konicek & Waclawik, 2018; Kozłowska & Orlecka‐Sikora, 2017; Ma et al., 2016), its orientation (Ma et al., 2019b; Mahdevari et al., 2016), burst proneness of rock, the evolution of mining‐induced stress re‐distribution (Abolfazlzadeh & Hudyma, 2016; Beer et al., 2017; Pariseau & McCarterr, 2017), potential for the occurrence of seismic events with large magnitudes (Ma et al., 2018), discrimination between natural and anthropogenic seismicity (Lizurek, 2017), and so forth. Due to the depletion of shallow ore deposits, mining depths have been continuously increasing around the world over time.…”
