Abstract:Every day the mining industry produces large amounts of mine tailings. In the case of copper ores exploited in Poland, the post-flotation tailings constitute 95% of the excavated rock and all the tailings are deposited in dumps, which are supported by outer dams. The durability and stability of these earth structures determine the safe operation of the entire object. The selection of adequate-quality soils for the construction of the dams is a crucial factor limiting the risk of its potential failure. Very large depositories require sufficiently large amounts of soil for the construction of the dams. An alternative to this classic approach is the use of the deposited tailings. In this solution the amount of mine wastes stored in the depository is reduced, there is no need to exploit the deposits of natural soils and the potential capacity of the depository increases. This paper presents the principles of the construction technology for hydraulically filled dams; the criteria for the selection of proper soil gradation and the physical properties of the sediments to be used in the construction of the dams; the principles of quality control for earth works; and the methodology of the geotechnical control tests. The effects of the applied technology on the condition of the natural environment are also discussed.

Title:Kontrola kvalitete pri gradnji nasipov iz jalovine
Abstract:Rudarska industrija dnevno proizvaja velike količine rudarske jalovine. Pri izkoriščanju bakrove rude na Poljskem ostanki po flotaciji predstavljajo 95 % izkopane hribine, vsi ti ostanki so deponirani na odlagališča, ki so podprta z zunanjimi jezovi. Trajnost in stabilnost teh zemljinskih objektov je odločilno za varno delovanje celotnega objekta. Izbira ustrezne kakovosti zemljin za gradnjo jezov predstavlja ključni dejavnik za omejevanje tveganja njegove potencialne porušitve. Zelo veliki depoji zahtevajo zadostno velike količine zemljine za gradnjo nasipov. Alternativa temu klasičnemu pristopu predstavlja uporaba odložene jalovine. Pri tej rešitvi se zniža količina rudniških odpadkov, ki so shranjeni v depojih jalovine, ni treba izkoriščati nahajališča naravnih zemljin in poveča se potencialna kapaciteta predvidenih depojev. Prispevek prikazuje principe tehnologije gradnje jezov za akumuliranje vode; kriterije za izbiro primerne granulacije zemljin in fizikalnih parametrov sedimentov za uporabo v gradnji jezov; principe kontrole kvalitete za zemeljska dela; in metodologijo geotehničnih kontrolnih preizkusov. Prav tako so razloženi učinki uporabljene tehnologije na stanje naravnega okolja.
