There are many ways that mining can influence surface and groundwater, both during and after operation. Mine sites need to manage water appropriately to minimise long-term environmental risks, and where required, sustain a post-mining land use.
Categories of technical and scientific mine rehabilitation publications related to water management are listed below. Publications will be added on individual pages as they become available.
-
Publications on leading practices for residual void modelling.
-
Publications transitioning of water rights and water infrastructure from active mining to a closed mine.
-
Publications on identifying, assessing and comparing water treatment options.
