...DANIEL F. MARTT; ABDUL SHAKOOR; BRIAN H. GREENE Abstract The Austin Dam, a concrete gravity structure, failed catastrophically on September 30, 1911, less than 2 years after its construction. Several engineering evaluations of the failure have been made since immediately following the disaster...

... in the range of 2–8 SI; Austin et al., 2014 ). The highest gravity anomalies typically correspond to rocks having high densities related to intense but barren hematite alteration, or to voluminous hematite-rich breccias such as those at the Olympic Dam deposit ( Esdale et al., 2003 ). The spatial...
