Filtered tailings vs thickened slurry: Four case studies

Shortage of water (or a high cost of it) drives miners to look towards more costly water extraction technology for their tailings. Filtration technology offers greater water recovery than the more commonly used thickening technology, but this comes at a greater cost, both in terms of capital outlay as well as its operation.

Simulation of interaction of side weir overflows with bed-load transport and bed morphology in a channel (SSIIM2.0)

To describe the complexity of flows accurately around side spillways, a 3D numerical flow model has been tested. In this study 3D numerical model SSIIM2.0 is used to simulate unsteady flows in side spillways in a schematic test channel. Side channel spillways are one of the types of outlet works at dams with wide applications in irrigation, drainage systems, in water and wastewater facilities.

Relating Atterberg limits to rheology

The combination of rheology and soil mechanics is a relatively rare occurrence. Both fields are generally applied in quite separate circumstances, not usually at the same time. However, the transport and storage of thickened tailings slurries has created a situation in which both of these fields do come together.

Simulation of Thickened Tailings Stacks

An a-priori method is presented for predicting the slope of a non-segregating tailings slurry in an open channel. This method has been validated with experimental data collected at two mine sites.

Prediction of Non-Segregating Thickened Tailings Beach Slope – A New Method

The experimental data from full-scale flume tests at Peak Gold Mines NSW, Australia on channelized tailings flow in equilibrium slope condition have been used to develop a method for the prediction of non-segregating tailings beach slope.
