Water Conservation when Mining Multiple, Thick, Closely-Spaced Coal Seams: A Case Study of Mining Under Weishan Lake

Mine Water and the Environment, 2019
To resolve issues of water resource conservation and avoid water inrush accidents, a case study was performed in the Gaozhuang coal mine, which lies under Weishan Lake. The two coal seams are 4 and 5 m thick, and are separated by 2–5 m. As the goaf gradually expanded with mining, some fractures that had formed at the centre of the goaf were gradually ...

WATER USE AND WATER CONSERVATION BY THE COPPER MINING INDUSTRY1

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, 1981
ABSTRACT: This paper examines the use of water by copper mines for treating low grade ores. The froth flotation process for treating sulphide ore and the heap leaching process for treating oxide ore are described, and ways of reducing the amount of water used in these processes are discussed. Estimates of the costs reducing water consumption are given.

Characterization of selected conservative and non-conservative isotopes in mine effluent and impacted surface waters: Implications for tracer applications at the mine-site scale

Applied Geochemistry, 2018
Abstract Effluent from Europe's largest active gold mine is discharged to the adjacent River Seurujoki via natural treatment wetlands in Lapland Finland. Site waters, including two sources of mine effluent, treatment wetland surface water and Seurujoki river water were chemically and isotopically characterized.

Soil and water conservation in mining area based on ground surface subsidence control: development of a high-water swelling material and its application in backfilling mining

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2016
It has always been a crucial issue in the mining industry that the surface subsidence induced by underground coal mining can lead to the severe deterioration or loss of soil and water resources in mining area. Backfilling has become one of the most frequently used mining method to solve this puzzle, as it can effectively control the movement of ...
