Geotechnical Evaluation of Mine-induced Earthquakes on Bruce Park Dam <br />Bowie Resources, Limited <br />June 2002 <br />0) Section 7 - Limitations <br />The analysis is based on our interpretation of sparse literature available on long wall mine- <br />induced seismicity. Material properties used in the analyses were based on soil samples <br />obtained only at the specific locations, only at the time they were obtained, and only to the <br />depth penetrated. Samples cannot be relied on to accurately reflect variations in strata that <br />may exist between sampling locations. <br />This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of Bowie Resources, Ltd. for the specific <br />application to the Bruce Park Dam Project. The intent of the analyses is to evaluate the likely <br />impacts of mine-induced seismicity on the main dam, saddle dam, and landslide. Analyses <br />to evaluate the stability and safety of the main dam, saddle dam, landslide, and other <br />appurtenants from other loading conditions and from natural, tectonically induced <br />earthquakes is not part of this work. <br />GEI has endeavored to comply with generally accepted engineering practice common to the <br />local area in conducting this analysis.
