Overview
Tailings dams, structures designed to store byproducts of mining operations, are integral to environmental safety and operational efficiency. Proper assessment ensures the stability and integrity of these dams, preventing catastrophic failures that can lead to significant environmental and economic repercussions. In South Africa, where mining is a cornerstone of the economy, the safety and sustainability of tailings dams are paramount.
This webinar aims at providing mining engineers with the insights and design philosophies behind tailings storage facilities. Detailed theories behind mine waste storage planning, FEM Modelling of TSFs, background of numerous incidents and practical application of NorSand Model for static liquefaction will be covered using MIDAS GTS NX.
