THE APPLICATION OF CONVEYORS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF WASTE DUMPS AND FILTERED-TAILINGS STORAGE FACILITIES

Presented by GabrIEL Moniz

Date: Tuesday, February 25th | Time: 2:05PM

“Waste rock management and tailings management are critical aspects of mine planning, especially for large-scale open pit mines. The design and construction of waste dumps and filtered-tailings storage facilities (FTSF) will largely affect the environmental and economic goals of a mining project. The construction of waste dumps and FTSFs can require substantial material haulage which is amongst the most significant costs for an open pit mining operation and is typically a major carbon footprint. Most large-scale and hard-rock open pit mines operate at stripping ratios greater than one which implies moving more waste than ore. Some of these mines have also to manage acid rock drainage (ARD), which is a major environmental hazard. Both facts reinforce the statement that the design and construction of waste dumps and FTSF will affect the environmental and economic goals of a mining project. BEUMER/FAM presents recent case studies where conveyors and crawler-mounted convey or-equipment are considered for the construction of waste dumps and FTSFs. The presentation identifies major design and construction considerations, as well as involved operating costs”

OPENCAST MINING SOLUTIONS
FOR THE GLOBAL MINING

In the area of opencast mining technology, FAM offers an impressive selection of various machines and systems, such as bucket wheel reclaimers for extraction of mineral resources like lignite, hard coal, overburden, marl, etc.

Opencast mining is a mining technique of extracting minerals from the near-surface layer of earth, these raw materials can be then used for further processing, for example, in production of metals or building materials. Our product portfolio ranges from mining equipment (e.g., excavators) to crushers, belt conveyors and subsequent stacking technology.

MINERAL PROCESSING
SOLUTIONS FOR THE
PROCESSING OF MINERALS

Our size reduction equipment includes diverse crushers and mills for extensive material processing in a variety of industries. Sand and gravel, clay and limestone, gypsum, building site rubble – the reference list of the BEUMER Group’s materials is extensive. From a technical standpoint, the systems are always at the heart of production. The product portfolio includes various crushing & screening plants, including impact, hammer, single & double-roll crushers, plus many more crushers and mills. E.g. cement works rely on the BEUMER Group’s solutions to move limestone over long distances from the quarry to the plant, making operations more sustainable and reducing the plant’s ecological footprint. We strive to be a benchmark in providing you with high quality in every aspect of your individual needs for specialized equipment.

STOCKYARD TECHNOLOGY
SOLUTIONS FOR OPTIMAL
STORAGE MANAGEMENT

Storage and homogenization of various bulk materials is a significant part of the handling processes within the overall logistic networks of the bulk material processing industry. Dynamic and efficient handling requires the stockyards to be equipped with appropriate technology (e.g., stackers, reclaimers, conveyor systems, etc.). Our product line of stockyard technology encompasses conveying systems, stackers and scrapers of various types, as well as bucket wheel machines.

CONCEPTS AND SOLUTIONS
FOR THE MINERALS &
MINING INDUSTRY

Mined raw materials travel along extensive transport routes. Ores, raw salt feeds, waste rock and overburden pass through various steps from mine to mill (mining, material transfers, comminution, mineral processing, hydrometallurgy, filtration and tailings disposal). Our systems ensure smooth, economical and environmentally friendly processing at each stage of materials handling.
