Application of organic materials onto Tailings dam
Application of organic materials onto Tailings dam
(OP)
I was wondering does anyone have any experience with methods for spreading soil forming materials (such as compost, spent grain etc) on top of a tailings dam. The only method I know is to drag a boom back and forth attached to a cable and two excavators at each site. Does anyone know of other methods. Obviously they cannot include methods where vehicles etc have to go onto the tailings for health and safety reasons.
All ideas, experience, is much appreciated.

Use geotextlie on the tailings sand if you are nervous When adequately covered with rock, bring in your organics, and spread with dozers.
The consultants ill tell you it cant be done, etc etc. Just do it and you will be pleasantly surprised.
