The main reason is water is often seen as an Act of God – either too much or too little. For those mines operating in Semi-arid environments, the perceived risks are seen as unmanageable. The main risks are too much water; flooding from storm events and inflows from aquifers or too little water of the right quality. There is risk that mining permits might be withheld and the increasing pressure on water resources means that there is reluctance by authorities to award permits for potable water to be used in mine processing. Most mines plan to recycle as much water as possible and control their internal process water use. This can now be integrated with the outside water impacts, including rainfall, storm water and ground water to manage the whole mine cycle contact with water resources. As water risk is foreseeable and preventable, delegates attending this symposium will gain an understanding of how to dramatically reduce the risk of water to their business. Integrated water resource management will be explained and case studies used to show where significant cost savings have been made by improving water management. Mine dewatering designs for different types of mine (block cave and conventional) will be demonstrated as well as straightforward techniques to reduce pollution .
