Water Energy Nexus: Water and Mining Conference
On 9-11 June 2010, the second International Congress on Water Management in the Mining Industry will take place in Santiago, Chile. The focus will be on water supply, efficient water use and effluent management in the mining industry:
«In the last few years due to increasing scarcity, on one hand, and the ever growing demand, on the other, important efforts have been undertaken by the mining industry to improve the efficient use of this valuable resource.
Between 2000 and 2008 the average water consumption in the Chilean copper industry decreased from 1.1 m3 to 0.79 m3 of fresh water for each ton of ore processed by flotation, and from 0.3 m3/t to around 0.13 m3/t of ore used in hydrometallurgical processes.»
The programme is available here.
