Mining and Mineral Processing
Mining, mineral processing and quarry operations produce large volumes of often saline and acidic effluent, which is often stored in mining voids and involves complex water transfer operations. Increasing salinity is a common problem with mining effluent storage basins and tailing dams, as it leads to reduced evaporative capacity and hence the need for greater pondage. Geo-Processors has significant experience with design of integrated treatment systems and evaporation ponds, to enhance evaporation rates and minimise land requirements. Geo-Processors’ innovative methods of improving the quality of process water in mineral processing operations offer another distinct technology advantage for the benefit of this industry.
