INDUSTRIAL WATER SUPPLY AND TAILING FACILITIES AT THE CONCENTRATING PLANT OF LEBEDINSKY MINING AND CONCENTRATING WORKS

摘要

High-efficient system of reverse water supply, providing preliminary thickening of tailing pulp of concentrating plant in radial thickeners (internal water cycle) and final pulp clarification in tailing storage (external water cycle) is created at Lebedinsky mining and concentrating works. Fresh water consumption at the works was essentially decreased, comparing with designed scheme, and service life of the existing tailing storage was extended.
