How it works
Compare thickened or filtered tailings according to stability, water, energy and local geotechnics.
Mining management includes exploration, extraction, treatment, community relationship, closure and subsequent surveillance.
When does it make sense?
- The risks of the deposit and site are assessed
- There are resources and responsible during operation and closure
- Results can be reviewed independently
How to apply it
- 1
Delimit the measurement and measure the starting position.
- 2
Apply the measure with competent personnel and check for site-specific risks.
- 3
Follow results, maintain the solution and correct unwanted effects.
Potential benefits
Lower risk of contamination
Improved territorial protection
Close more responsible
Limitations and precautions
- The benefit must be verified under the actual conditions of application.
- The avoided damage depends on the design and maintenance throughout the life cycle.
- Extraction continues to involve impacts that require prevention and limits.
