About this listen
In this episode of The Tailings Podcast, we dive into the critical topic of tailings slope stability—vital structures in the mining industry used for storing waste. Our discussion centers on how density and rainfall influence the stability of these slopes, drawing insights from centrifuge modeling and advanced numerical simulations. We break down how varying tailings densities respond under different conditions and why rainfall plays a major role by altering pore-water pressures and reducing safety factors. Join us as we unpack this research and explore how it can help prevent tailings dam failures and improve waste management practices across the mining sector.
