Design Guide for Metal and Nonmetal Tailings Disposal
The Bureau of Mines has conducted considerable research on the design, construction, and operation of metal and nonmetal tailings ponds. This design guide and other related Bureau publications that preceded it are produced to assist the industry in the management of mill tailings disposal. It covers the site selection, sampling, laboratory testing, design, construction, operation and inspection of tailings embankments. The effects of environment, topography, and hydrogeology are also included. A review of various methods of stability analysis and factors affecting stability are presented. Because of the diversity of problems encountered in tailings embankments, specific solutions are not intended. The guide is, however, a useful checklist for designers, operators, and inspectors of this type of structure.
