TAILINGSA KONTAIN TECHNICAL RESOURCE

Tailings stacking support through Kontain

Stack configuration, engineering input and geobag supply.

Develop the stacked tailings concept from the site, production basis and material response. Kontain connects the agreed layout, civil and operating scope with the supplied geobags and associated materials.

Kontain tailings stacking support areas

01 / STACK CONFIGURATION

Footprint, tiers and construction sequence.

Develop the agreed bag arrangement, staged capacity, tier geometry, offsets, access and filling programme, with stack planning and modelling where the project warrants it.

02 / BASE + DRAINAGE

Platform, liner and water collection.

Work through the base-system requirements, material specification, drainage layout and civil details around the site and proposed staged and final loads.

03 / CONTAINERS + SUPPLY

Kontainer™ Geobags for the proposed stack.

Consider dimensions, fabric, seams, ports and filling conditions alongside the stack configuration, then develop the associated liner, protection and drainage material package.

04 / VERIFICATION + OPERATION

Testing, hold points and scope interfaces.

Clarify the representative test inputs, filling controls and interfaces between the facility designer, operator, civil team, pumping and material supplier.

Agree the design scope, deliverables, responsibilities and exclusions before appointment. Staged stability, monitoring and closure requirements remain part of the overall tailings facility assessment.

Work back from the completed stack.

Set the proposed footprint, capacity and construction stages, then align the tailings response, bag configuration, foundation, drainage and operating controls.

Kontain’s main website holds the current geobag product data and supply/design scope. Use it to review the material package alongside the project engineering requirements.

Kontain

Discuss the tailings stack and material package.

Bring the proposed storage demand, site layout and available test results. Kontain can help define the next assessment and the agreed design/supply scope.
