GEOSS provides groundwater services to mines. With the aim of managing and protecting groundwater resources to the benefit of all stakeholders, the environment included.
For an open cast phosphate mine, the groundwater abstracted from necessary dewatering process is reinjected into the aquifer using a managed aquifer recharge technique. This is done to protect down gradient receptors that would otherwise potentially be at risk. GEOSS undertakes regular water level and quality monitoring at the site.
Julian,
Thank you for the report. The report is well written (as always) and gives a clear picture on the state of ground and surface water. Thank you for including the section on the parameters (reduction thereof). Thank you to GEOSS for the excellent service.
