Abstract
Tailing dumps are the dynamic man-made systems, and their operation depends on the rock mass processing volume, as well as the type of processed ores. So the problems of industrial and environmental safety, tailing dam’s stability are highly relevant for the whole period of operation and require special attention. Along with the standard set of observations the methodology of the estimated monitoring includes, the tailing dam’s stability calculations under changing technological parameters of exploitation, observing geometric characteristics of construction and the properties of the inwashed tails. The proposed methodology was successfully applied for the tailing dumps of the mining and non-ferrous metallurgy industrial enterprise in Norilsk industrial region (North of Siberia).
