Mine Water. Mine water encompasses all water impacted during mining operations, such as freshwater, process water, process waste streams, contact water, and mine drainage. Because mining occurs all year round, all over the world, it's essential to carefully manage mine water to avoid deficits and surpluses. We work with a range of mine water ...
To move towards sustainable development, the mining industry needs to identify better mine water management practices for reducing raw water use, increasing water use efficiency, and eliminating environmental …
Water management and wastewater treatment solutions and services for the mining industry include: Mine dewatering pumps, water pipelines, and storage tanks. High-pressure filter presses.

The zero discharge of mine water is a mine water management strategy that eliminates mine wastewater and maximizes mine water usage efficiency, which has attracted renewed interest worldwide in recent years (Tong and Elimelech 2016). Mine water recovery and recycling minimizes the volume and potential environmental risk of …
1. Let go of centralizing water treatment. Historically, the assumption that an expensive active water treatment system would be enough to handle mine water management was widely accepted. However, this mindset is now widely seen as inadequate. Concerns are beginning to arise around the potential for design mismatch or operational failure of a ...
Mine Water Management — HydroGeoLogica. WATER is the life blood of any mining operation. With the increasing pressure on mine operators to demonstrate responsible and sustainable water management practices, analysis and decision-making tools are becoming increasingly valuable. HydroGeoLogica understands these pressures and is …

considerable potential for its adoption as a mine water management tool. Although the terms MAR and aquifer re- injection are often used synonymously within the mining context, there is a subtle distinction between the two. Aquifer re-injection is a technique used to return fluids to the subsurface regardless of the final
Water management plans. Responsible use of water includes implementing water management plans from the inception of the project through to closure, as an integral part of the mine design and operation. Gone are the days of thinking about closure at the end of a mine's life, we now consider closure right from project inception.
3. Methodological approaches3.1. Dynamic mine water management. A dynamic system approach for treating mine water is slowly becoming a norm with modelling software such as GoldSim, Matlab Simulink, Geochemists Workbench and Phreeqc being favoured over the normal spreadsheet-based approach. Dynamic modelling is highly …
Water in Mining is the must-attend forum for professionals looking to drive real change in how the mining industry manages water. ... Excellent topics and presentations from around the world covering technology, policy/regulation, data management and indigenous engagement. Well worth attending. Director, Water, Pathways Alliance Inc.
Water is vital for any mining operation. Wa-ter a ects mineral extraction and processing, stability of pit slopes and mine workings, community relations and potential environ-mental impacts. Water management, reuse and treatment are essential components of every mining operation. e application of cost-intensive technologies such as reverse ...
Dewatering and depressurisation planning should be integrated with the many mining disciplines which it interacts with or it will fail. However, these interactions, and the operational decisions that result, should be well informed with timely, reliable, operations specific monitoring data. Good data may require significant cost and effort but ...
However, as mine water management requires more detailed information, online monitoring of mine water discharges and pressure sensors in groundwater monitoring pipes and weirs is becoming commonplace. Footnote 39 Continuous monitoring of the flow and water level is recommended. Nevertheless, this does not preclude …
Integrated mine water management systems treat the water and fines from the settlers to improve the recovery of minerals such as gold. In a typical mining operation, some 35%-45% of the water discharged to the tailings dam is reused in the process plant, while 25% of the water typically remains in the tailings dam.
As water systems on coal mines are complex and consist of various inter-connected elements, a systems approach was selected, which views mine site water management as a system that obtains water from various sources (surface, groundwater), provides sufficient water of suitable quality to the mining tasks (coal beneficiation, dust …
One of the greatest challenges facing mining operations is the development and management of water resources. Water is arguably the second most valuable asset on a mine after the ore body itself. Multotec offers fit-for-purpose, niche technologies specifically suited to the treatment of divalent and trivalent containing mining waters.
Water. It's one of your mine's most valuable resources. Only three per cent of the earth's surface water is fresh. The remaining 97 per cent of the earth's water resides in the ocean. Less than one per cent of fresh water is surface water. Our holistic approach to mine water management allows mines to understand and manage risks associated ...
Community water supply – MoU with State Government/Best Practices. Coal companies have entered into a MoU with respective State Government for community water supply. Under the MoU, responsibility of providing raw mine water at surface reservoir lies with Mine Management. Whereas, the responsibility for filtration, operation, quality control ...

5. CONCLUSIONS. In this study, a groundwater management model of a coal mining area is developed to optimize mine drainage, water supply and environmental protection. The new model is applied to search for the optimal management scheme at a typical site of the Jiaozuo coal mining district in North China.
The mine water management system includes water balance modelling and wa-ter quality and quantity monitoring. The difference between water management and water balance is important. According to ...
