Portable infrasound and seismic array deployed 200 km from the Black Thunder coal mine recorded signals. Seven, single‐fired explosions were detonated in the Black Thunder coal mine, six closely spaced (<100 m) and the seventh located ∼3 km away. The amount of explosive ranged from 2500 to 22,100 kg. The signal to noise ratios (SNR) at regional distance ranged from near the noise level to 2 orders of magnitude above the noise (<1–100 SNR). |
