The essay is based on a presentation delivered by Miriam Clark, Christine Daly, M. Anne Naeth, and Michelle Peters during a technical panel discussion hosted in October 2021, by the Calgary, Alberta, chapter of Women in Mining Canada. The essay provides a brief history of mine closure and reclamation, a closer look at several case studies on mines in Canada and Australia, and anticipates future trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"776\" src=\"http:\/\/landformdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/LDIQ_Winter2022-cover.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1636\" style=\"border-width:1px;width:263px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/landformdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/LDIQ_Winter2022-cover.png 600w, https:\/\/landformdesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/LDIQ_Winter2022-cover-232x300.png 232w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The Winter 2022 newsletter also includes a summary of the LDI\u2019s participation in another online gathering of mine closure professionals, this one hosted by the Swedish Mining Association.

He notes that, while most mines understand the big geotechnical issues involved in operating a mine, such as tailings and waste rock properties and volumes, upwards of a dozen other waste streams are less well characterized. All of them will end up somewhere on the post-mining landscape, and getting a handle on not only the geology of the materials, but the regulations that apply to them, is essential to successful reclamation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">&nbsp;The take-home message is \u201cyour mine waste could be someone else\u2019s ore.\u201d &nbsp;In addition, starting with this episode, the LDI is providing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/refined-peach-gorilla.67-231-28-242.cpanel.site\/igraphics\/index.html\">infographics<\/a>&nbsp;that help explain the video-vignette.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New&nbsp;Quarterly&nbsp;and video vignette released VANCOUVER, BC (Jan. 24, 2022) \u2014 The first issue of the&nbsp;Landform Design Quarterly&nbsp;for 2022 features a close look at the role of women in mining.
