Mine Tailings: Fundamental and Engineering Aspects of Colloidal/Fine Mine Wastes offers an in-depth examination of mine waste and related issues such as storage, safety, environmental impact, water management, and sustainability. The book begins with a review of regulations and global standards for tailings management that is followed by an analysis of common types of tailings storage facilities. The book delves into the behavior of tailings materials, including particle interactions, dispersion/aggregation, and the rheology of mineral suspensions. It covers soil mechanics and toxic substance treatment, as well as managing the closure and safety of mine waste management facilities. Additionally, it addresses the environmental, social, and governance factors essential for sustainable mining operations, making it a valuable resource for those concerned with mine waste management. This comprehensive text is crucial for researchers and engineers aiming to understand and mitigate the impacts of mine waste. Examines the fundamental aspects of mine tailings and their implications on the global mining industry as well as relevant new technologies Explores the characterization and evaluation of mine tailings behavior under different chemical and physical environments Provides in-depth discussions on issues related to the environment, energy, water, sustainability, and the circular economy
