Open-Pit Mine Microseismic Event Waveforms with 21,034 Labelled Records

A dataset from an open-pit mine contains 21,034 labelled event-level waveform records across five classes: microseismic, blasting, small landslide, mechanical mining, and transport vehicles. It also includes one day of raw miniSEED observational records, station metadata, and data logs. The static release was authored by 1 1 and last updated on 2026-05-19.

Use Cases

• Classifying seismic event types based on labelled waveform records.
• Developing signal processing workflows for raw miniSEED data.
• Training models to distinguish between natural microseismic events and anthropogenic disturbances like blasting or machinery.
• Reproducing preprocessing pipelines for continuous geophysical monitoring data.

Strengths

• Contains 21,034 labelled event-level waveform records.
• Data is organized into five distinct event classes, with counts provided for each (e.g., 1,696 microseismic, 7,761 blasting).
• Includes station metadata for reconstructing monitoring geometry and data logs detailing observation periods.
• Provides a 3.2 GB subset of raw continuous data for workflow reproduction.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The full continuous raw archive is approximately 3.2 TB, but only a one-day subset is included.
• Sensitive operational identifiers beyond station IDs are not included in the metadata.
