TL;DRAbstract

Post-exploitation holes occur frequently in areas of shallow mineral deposits. Our knowledge concerning their location is usually very poor, because in general either no maps of old mines are available, or they are too inaccurate to be of much help. However, because the holes which migrate toward the surface can directly threaten existing constructions and infrastructure, a precise location of such holes is often badly needed. Our paper addresses some of the problems encountered while trying to localize post-exploitation mining holes by the GPR method.
