Abstract

•Monitor-while-drilling and geophysical logging data have been acquired for blast holes in an open cut coal mine•Comparison of results show that MWD results respond to the variations in geology revealed by the geophysical logs.•MWD data can be used to predict sonic velocity.•MWD data can be used for geological and geotechnical analysis including blast design.
