The Mine Water Treatment Consortium

The Mine Water Treatment Consortium is a collaborative effort among industry stakeholders, researchers, and regulators aiming to develop and implement effective methods for treating water contaminated by mining activities. Their goal is to safely remove pollutants, such as heavy metals and acidity, helping to protect ecosystems and local communities. By sharing knowledge and resources, the consortium strives to improve treatment technologies, reduce environmental impacts, and promote sustainable mining practices. Overall, it’s a coordinated effort to manage and remediate water affected by mining in a responsible and efficient manner.
