Breve
Minetek’s gold mining client in South Carolina faced ongoing challenges with managing water levels in its tailings dam and mining pits. To prevent water accumulation from impacting production and ensure the stability and safety of the tailings dam and mining areas, the site required a robust evaporation solution capable of handling large volumes of water while maintaining compliance with environmental regulations.
Sfida
Excess water levels in the tailings dam and mining pits posed multiple risks, including potential structural instability, environmental contamination, production delays, and regulatory non-compliance. These issues could lead to costly fines, remediation efforts, or even a shutdown of operations. Implementing an effective water management solution was crucial to ensure safe and efficient mining activities.
Soluzione
Minetek Water provided a comprehensive solution by deploying a 14 x Water Evaporator System Package across the tailings dam and mining pits. With a combined evaporation capacity of 1,340 cubic meters per hour (5,940 gallons per minute), these system efficiently reduced water levels, minimising the risk of overflow and maintaining safe operational conditions. This high-capacity evaporation solution enabled the site to manage water effectively, mitigate environmental risks, and ensure regulatory compliance, supporting sustainable and uninterrupted gold mining operations.
