Mine tailings remain one of the mining industry’s most significant challenges, given the potential impacts of poor design or management on people and the environment.
At the same time, these facilities present a major opportunity to recover value from waste.
To address challenges and unlock opportunities, ICMM refreshed its Tailings Innovation Initiative, initially launched in 2018, to advance safer and more sustainable approaches to mine tailings management.
The initiative provides a collaborative platform to exchange knowledge and develop practical solutions for reusing, reducing, and reimagining tailings.
In addition, its focus is knowledge sharing, capacity building, convening partners to test and scale solutions and identifying and addressing barriers to innovation.
