    $\begingroup$ Good answer, but I think the question pointed to larger earthquakes, triggered by mining, more than small seismic events produced by mining activities (due to mine colapses or use of explosives). $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 12, 2018 at 20:44
  • $\begingroup$ @CamiloRada Maybe, but I just read what I could, did some research, typed and posted an answer, and sited my source(s). If it was implied, my bad. But if an edit needs to be made, one of us shall do so. Thanks for letting me know! :) $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 12, 2018 at 20:48

Mines can also be the source of artificial seismic activities due to mine collapse, explosives......" and then go on with the nice answer and research you did. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 12, 2018 at 20:52
