Abstract/Additional Information |
The paper summarizes data on a tailings dam and performance during its service life. An expected increase in reservoir level required a complete assessment of dam stability. The assessment involved a comprehensive geotechnical investigation. The results of the geotechnical investigation and analysis to evaluate current conditions and predict future dam behavior are presented and discussed.
