Hydrogeological analysis of the existing state of drainage with a new system of wells for lowering the groundwater level of the RTH flotation tailing dump in Bor

Abstract

After conducting the geotechnical and hydrogeological explorations of the RTH flotation tailing dump and determining the stability of slopes for the overhanging purposes, the zone with the observed instability, an elevated and unfavorable gradient of the groundwater level, was determined and located. Due to these reasons, further design of the groundwater level regulation system was started. The hydrodynamic analysis of the task determined that in order to achieve the effects of lowering and regulating the level of underground water, it is necessary to construct fourteen wells.
