Abstract

Wavelets analysis is used to discriminate between explosions and natural earthquakes. We applied wavelets techniques to analyze the seismograms of a set of mining explosions, reported in catalogs as earthquakes, and compared them with natural earthquakes that occurred in the same region (within a radius of 10 km).
