RESULTS OF EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS ON THE CONSOLIDATION OF SETTLING TAILINGS

INVESTIGATION PROCEDURES AND RESULTS ARE PRESENTED FROM STUDIES ON SEDIMENTATION OF THE SOLID COMPONENT OF THE SLURRY DURING THE PROCESS OF FILLING A TAILINGS RESERVOIR, ON CONSOLIDATION OF THE SETTLED PARTICLES OF SLURRY WITH TIME, AND ON DETERMINATION OF THE COEFFICIENT OF PERMEABILITY OF THE SETTLED TAILINGS. TESTS CARRIED OUT IN METAL CONTAINERS OF 600-MM INTERNAL DIAMETER AND 8 M HIGH GIVE THE MOST PROBABLE VALUE OF THE FILTRATION FLOW THROUGH A SCREEN CONSISTING OF THE INVESTIGATED SOIL. PIEZOMETER READINGS WERE UTILIZED FOR DETERMINING THE VARIATION OF THE HEIGHT OF THE CONSOLIDATED TAILING WITH TIME. /AUTHOR/
