Weir presents its transformational flowsheets for tailings management, designed to help miners rethink, reduce, and repurpose tailings. Recognising the diverse requirements of the mining industry, Weir collaborates with miners to evaluate each solution’s advantages and disadvantages. These customisable flowsheets serve as a foundation for comprehensive tailings management options, ensuring optimal solutions tailored to specific needs. The objective is to produce tailings streams for various purposes or create a consistent product for reliable deposition at the Tailings Storage Facility, regardless of process variations. With all-of-mine capabilities, Weir leverages upstream technologies to minimise downstream tailings issues and enhance dewatering effectiveness.
Weir boasts teams of product and process experts located in all major mining regions. These experts work closely with clients to provide solutions based on unique needs. The regional teams are supported by Weir Technical Centres, which conduct test work and lab analysis. Additionally, Weir offers full-scale demonstrations, from circuit design to on-site sampling and reporting.
With a collaborative mindset, Weir seeks and partners with industry leaders to expand the range of solutions offered, pushing the boundaries in flowsheet design to achieve desired outcomes in a safe and environmentally responsible manner.
