Field measurements of strain are made in-situ as the core is pulled out of the well. DSA is performed under in-sltu hydrostatic co=dltlons in the labaratcry, and the rook is examined microscopically. These tests have been performed on both oriented ani ~n-orieuted cores. It appears that a reaso_-~!y acctTate e~timate of the 3-dlmension~l stress s t a t e can be obtained using the DSA method. It has ~een demons~ratel mt&ema+i~sllv t~a+. - a t only the ratio of the stresses can be derived but also the orie:~ation of the stresses in free space. The ap~.ication of these equations to the field data yields results well within the reproducible tolerance of other methods.

Numerical modelling was used to (i) demonstrate that overcoring results reflect the in situ stress field, amd (2) evaluate possible changes in mine g e n t r y that m ~ t reduce stress-related roof add floor structural problems. Good a@reement was o b t a i n e d between a 764 element finite element model ani a 135 element displacement discontinuity model.

Discusses overcc~'Ing measurements to determine the in situ stress field a~d permeability measurements b y the air injection technique. Laboratory t e s t s i~licate that the permeabillties determined are due to the fractures. The high permeabllltles are limited to the immediate vicinity of the tur~1.

Presents two case studies of subsidence investigations. The first is a study of subsidence over a series of l o m ~ l~mels in one seam amd the secomi is a study of subsidence over pillar extraction i n two seams, one above the other. From the results of the investigation the effects of panel widths on subsidence are determined.

Models of samd add gelatin were u s e d t o simulate either fractured overburden cr rook with elastic characteristics. Extraction ratios and P~r~!-width/depth-topanel ratios, are shown to affect the subsidence factar. The experiments are considered to demonstrafe the usefulness of the technique as applied to rocm-anl-pillar mines.
