CASA-MIA is a ground based array which detects the air-showers produced by gamma-rays at 100 TeV and above. The array's ability to detect muons allows much of the cosmic-ray background to be discarded. Data from 1990 to 1993 has been used to search for short duration gamma-ray bursts from arbitrary direction. No evidence for 0.035s bursts has been found. This result has been used to set a limit on the rate-density of evaporating primordial black holes. Additional point source searches with longer time windows of 1s, 10s and 100s are also investigated.
