Mine Waste and Tailings 2023 will explore the latest developments in all aspects of life cycle waste rock and tailings management, from site selection and design to post-closure care.
The mining industry now accepts that the majority of the world’s future minerals will come from low-grade, high-tonnage, ultra-mechanised operations. As a result, a higher production of waste rock and tailings is expected over the course of the 21st century. Mining systems will require re-engineering, based on the paradigm shift that mining business success is fundamentally dependent upon waste management.
