Bibliography
This document gives recommendations for the hydraulic placement of extractive wastes and may be applicable to the following: — all stakeholders engaged in the deposition of extractive wastes using hydraulic placement techniques with respect to geotechnical and geochemical aspects of the investigation, engineering design, construction and operation of a mine waste facility and all associated monitoring activities; — those extractive industries involving the production of fine particulate wastes which, in the course of industrial processing, require to be stored in a safe, stable and environmentally acceptable location; — practitioners in non-extractive industries in fields where similar techniques may be applicable and for which no other European guidance exists.
