Preconditioning involves regularly setting off carefully tailored blasts in the fractured rock immediately ahead of a mining face, so as to encourage slip on pre-existing fractures, in order not to allow the accumulation of high strain energy density in the rock massenSIMRACGAP 336Hazardous areasRock burstsConference PresentationToper, A., Stewart, R., Kullmann, D., Grodner, M., Lightfoot, N., Janse van Rensburg, A., & Longmore, P.
