1. Development of innovation routes for iron ore using high intensity magnetic separators
Abstract The mineral processing of low-grade iron ores commonly generates large volumes of slime, which are disposed as tailings. Modern mining requires strives to eliminate the use of tailings dams in a maximum effort to increase metallurgical recovery, the security and reduction of the operational cost. This research aims for the recovery of iron contained

2. Obtaining geotechnical parameters from correlations between geophysics and CPT tests in tailings dams
Abstract This article introduces a hassle-free methodology for geotechnical parameters to be obtained from correlations between geophysics and CPT field tests in tailings dams undergoing the decommissioning process, which are reasonably representative of site conditions, from the very early project stages, with extensive coverage of all impoundment parts, wi

3. Recovery of pellet feed from tailings dams
Abstract Not long ago, certain iron ore processing plants in Brazil were unable to efficiently recover iron ore fines and, as a result, operated only with high grade iron ore. For this reason, material stored in some iron ore tailings dams have considerable amounts of iron content with a potential to produce pellet feed fines through a concentration process.

4. Impact of methods used to reconstitute tailings specimens on the liquefaction potential assessment of tailings dams
Abstract The aim of this research is to investigate the liquefaction susceptibility of silt sandy mining tailings by experimental laboratory techniques. The main aspect analyzed is how techniques of sample reconstitution impact the results obtained in static undrained triaxial tests. Different methods of sample preparation are reviewed, such as moist tamping

5. Rheology applied to the environmental management of mineral tailings: focus on safer disposal and water reuse
Abstract Mining activities worldwide are subject to serious geotechnical accidents involving tailings dams. Therefore, many studies have focused on tailings dewatering before their deposition. This article studies the rheological properties of flocculated and thickened nickel tailings in order to determine the effect of the initial solid concentration and ty

6. Application of ISO 31000 standard on tailings dam safety
Abstract Tailings dam safety is a frequent subject of discussion during mining project development. However, due to recent accidents with these structures, this issue has become even more prominent. A highlighted point is the risk management, which can be defined as the identification, analysis and maintenance of risks at acceptable levels during the design,

7. DNPM actions on the implementation of law 12.334/2010: from the ordinances and inspections to the SIGBM
Abstract As defined in PNSB - Law 12.334/2010 (Brasil, 2010), the DNPM, which manages the Brazilian mineral resources, is also responsible for overseeing the safety management of tailings dams in the country. The purpose of this article is to present the actions carried out in this context by the Department since the enactment of the Law in 2010, such as: el

8. Aging simulation of the tailings from Stava fluorite extraction by exposure to gamma rays
Abstract Tailings storage facilities are disposal systems for storing the waste products of the mining industry consisting of a slurry mixture made of soil, rock and water that remain after the mineral values have been removed from the patent ore. Tailings dams are supposed to last forever, so after their deposition, tailings can experience aging processes w

9. Caracterização de rejeitos de minério de ferro para uso em pavimentação / Characterization of iron ore tailings for use in paving
In this work it was carried out a series of laboratory tests towards chemical, mineralogical and geotechnical characterization of rejects from iron ore processing, for use in paving. Material sampling was done in specific points as they were generated during the beneficiation process along the cycle, in order to preserve their properties. The alternative app

10. Desenvolvimento de equipamento para realização de ensaios HCT com o uso da bomba de fluxo
In general, the tailings are disposed in the form of pulp, mainly because the condition of the residue is the natural byproduct of the minerals concentrations activities, always associated with large water demands. The final disposal of wastes in pulp occurs by hydraulic filling techniques in large reservoirs of check dams. In the case of more granular taili

11. ESTUDO DA LIQUEFAÇÃO ESTÁTICA EM REJEITOS E APLICAÇÃO DE METODOLOGIA DE ANÁLISE DE ESTABILIDADE
Liquefaction is a phenomenon that happens in saturated granular soils when undergoing loadings rapid enough to produce great pore pressure increase with the consequent reduction of the effective stress and the shear strength. In the mining context, the possibility of the liquefaction occurrence in the granular tailings, when saturated, is a relevant concern

12. Uso das técnicas HCT e TDR no monitoramento do proceso de consolidação em reservatórios de barragens de rejeitos / Monitoring of consolidation process in deposits of tailings dam by TDR and HCT techniques
The mining industry generates a large amount of tailing, which is usually placed in tailing dams. To properly design these constructions, when the tailing is highly compressible, it is necessary to study the consolidation characteristics of this material by means of techniques that consider large deformations. This study aimed to establish the technique HCT
