Effective Solutions for Dams, Tailings, and Mining Sectors
From life-saving medical devices and medicines to the phones we use and everything in between, globally, we heavily rely on the mining industry to provide for us every day. It is also an industry that carries tremendous responsibilities, including: tailings management, regulatory compliance, and faces some of the largest geotechnical and environmental challenges across the world.
Your Challenges
The challenges you may face include, constructing infrastructure with limited by physical space, time or cost; and constructing, upgrading, and reclaiming tailings management facilities throughout the life of the mine. We’re here to help you mitigate the risk posed by poor ground conditions that can be disruptive, even catastrophic to your operation. We support you, by using highly-effective and efficient ground improvement systems that help you by:
- Controlling Seepage
- Seismic Upgrading
- Mitigating Liquefaction Risk
- Optimizing Construction Sequencing
- Compacting Soils
- Stabilizing Slopes
- Increasing Bearing Capacity
- Environmental Risk:
Reducing Tailings Seepage and Improving Water Management - Worker and Public Safety Risk:
Improving Tailings Dam Structural Integrity
- Regulatory Compliance Risk:
Establishing Facility Capacity Limits, Dam Inspections, and Closure Plans - Economic Risk:
Tailings Capacity and Construction Optimization, Improving Production Targets
Our Solutions
Ground improvement systems help by reinforcing challenging soils, including waste rock, tailings, and fill soils, to improve the support of your mining structures. Our systems for supporting mine-related structures are:
Mining and Mining Infrastructure
- Coffer dams
- Bearing capacity for plant infrastructure
- Stockpile and waste rock dump foundations
Tailings Facility Management
- Seepage mitigation
- Shear resistance
- Seismic upgrading
- Faster consolidation and optimized construction
