Water balance of metal mining tailings management facilities : influence of climate conditions and tailings management options Solgi, Narjes Abstract. The objective of this research was done to review and compare available methods for Tailings Management Facilities (TMFs) water balance; to develop deterministic and probabilistic models; and to ...
We tend to overestimate the volume of water used to process ore and the evaporation from tailings and heap leach stockpiles. During mine operation, a significant portion of the water collected from onsite water management systems is consumed and recycled by ore processing and lesser portion discharged to the environment. When mining and processing cease, however, the mine site water balance …
2017-6-1 · A water balance model was developed to forecast the management strategy of a uranium mill effluent system, located in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. Mining and milling operations, such as pit dewatering or treated effluent release, can potentially influence the hydrology and the water quality downstream of the operations.
The water balance of the open. mining pit, and Itäallas (east pool) into which water is pumped from the open pit, are also included in the model. The hydrological model uses daily meteorological ...
