Feb 06, 2019In this case, highly stable tailings are produced for disposal in tailings dams with low segregation and water release. In this method, integrating the design of the thickener, transport system and disposal strategy is really important and the key link between these three disciplines is the rheology of the tailings ( Thompson Moreno 2017 ).

Dec 01, 2011Reuse of mine wastes allows their beneficial application, whereas recycling extracts resource ingredients or converts wastes into valuable products. Yet, today, many of the proposed reuse and recycling concepts for mine wastes are not economic. Consequently, the great majority of mine wastes are still being placed into waste storage facilities.
