De-Watering

The installation of an effective water dewatering system is an essential component of resource extraction in both open-pit and sub-surface operations. This ensures the stability of mine walls during and after excavation, preventing unnecessary flooding, optimising mine production and reducing operational costs.  

There are a number of methods for water removal from mining operations, including sump pumping from the mine floor and pumping from wellpoints, deep boreholes or drains.  In some cases, a combination of methods is best implemented.  The hydrogeological condition of the mine site, length of time pumping is required, volume of water to be removed and site specifics such as location of power cabling and location of transport systems, are the main factors in determining which system suits your mining operation.
