Tailing Management

Tailing management involves overseeing and controlling the leftover materials—called tailings—that remain after extracting minerals from ore. These tailings are often stored in designated ponds or facilities to prevent environmental contamination and ensure safety. Proper management includes monitoring for leaks, preventing spills, and maintaining containment structures to protect water sources, wildlife, and communities. Effective tailing management reduces environmental impact, minimizes hazards, and ensures compliance with regulations, supporting sustainable mining practices.
