PROJECTS

Confidential Pit Lake Modelling

Mine Closure

Mine Water Studies

Predictive and Numerical Modelling

RGS has completed several final void/ pit lake water balance and water quality models to support Closure options assessments for a confidential gold miner in Central Queensland.

Mauls Creek Pit Lake Modelling

Mine Closure

Mine Water Studies

Predictive and Numerical Modelling

RGS was engaged by Whitehaven Coal Limited to complete several geochemical assessments and develop a final void water balance and water quality model for the final void at Maules Creek Coal Mine .

Hume Coal hydro-geochemical Modelling

Mine Water Studies

Predictive and Numerical Modelling

RGS was engaged to complete a geochemical assessment for spoil and coal reject materials. The assessment included a comprehensive kinetic testing program and development of several hydro-geochemical predictive water quality models in response to specific comments related to the Hume Coal Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).

Latrobe Valley pit lake water balance and water quality modelling

Mine Closure

Soil Science and Rehabilitation

RGS was engaged by LVRRS - DELWP to undertake a scoping study in consultation with a panel of experts to develop a framework for modelling the geochemical and limnological evolution of mine pit lakes and identify critical data gaps for follow-up investigation; and, produce a GoldSim pit lake water balance and water quality model that enables the evolution of three pit lakes to be modelled over a 100-year period.

Sepon Mine Water Treatment

Mine Water Studies

RGS was engaged by LXML to undertake an environmental evaluation of potential residual and cumulative impacts from a proposed ion exchange (IX) water treatment process that was being considered by LXML for a copper tailings dam to allow the excess water balance to be reduced.

Mount Carlton Gold Mine

Geochemistry and Contaminated Land

Mine Closure

Mine Waste Management

Soil Science and Rehabilitation

RGS is assisting Evolution Mining Limited at the Mt Carlton Operation with several geochemistry investigations which will support the development of a Progressive Rehabilitation and Closure Plan (PRCP) and detailed design for the waste rock storage facility (WRSF).
