Francesca De Santis, an Ineris doctoral candidate working at the GéoRessources laboratory of the University of Lorraine and co-supervised by IPG Paris and BOLIDEN, was awarded two prizes in 2017 for the quality of her ongoing dissertation work on analyzing microseismic data applied to seismic risk forecasting in deep mining operations.

This research is being conducted in collaboration with the Garpenberg Mine in Sweden.
She received the first award in March as part of the Workshop organized at Davos (Switzerland) by ETH Zurich on anthropogenic seismicity. The second award was given to her last November in Santiago, Chile, during the RaSiM9 international symposium on induced seismicity and the response of rock masses to mining activity and underground works.
