Dolomite instability has resulted in significant financial losses on an annual basis, yet sites underlain by dolomite, with the potential for instability, continue to be targeted for development.

It has been Jones & Wagener mission to better understand these sites earmarked for development from a geological perspective and come up with sound engineering solutions for these problems.

Shallow dolomite and its associated risks are analyzed by means of:

• Test pitting
• Percussion drilling
• Geophysical surveys
• Remote sensing
