1 Dry Stacking of Cycloned Tailings W. Lugão - VOGBR, Brazil M. Almeida - VOGBR, Brazil A. Guimarães - VOGBR, Brazil F. Magalhães - VOGBR, Brazil S. Mohallem - ARCELORMITTAL, Brazil
2 Introduction Tailings at ArcelorMittal Mineração s Serra Azul Mine are currently disposed of in a tailings dam, which is at the end of its useful life. Another tailings disposal facility is required and there is no place for another conventional dam. A drained stacking scheme was proposed, with the following advantages over conventional dams: - It allows tailings to be stored in stacks, which poses less risk as it does not involve the storage of water; - It will be located in an area that was occupied by a fines stockpile (sinter feed), which is why no additional land will have to be purchased; - It allows mining operations to proceed without interruption.

17 Stability Analyses The safety factor for the critical failure surface is 1.97 and is therefore satisfactory. Stability analysis results for waste rock/tailings co-disposal Global Non-Circular failure.

21 Final Remarks Stability analyses have arrived at a satisfactory safety factor, assuming the long-term (drained) final stack condition; the maximum predicted subsidence in dry stacks will be acceptable even in the most critical long-term condition; It is suggested that the cyclone system operating techniques should be reviewed, as the system is now working with overflow rates in excess of design rates. As a result, underflow requirements are being filled with jig tailings currently available at the mine for such purpose. It is also recommended that alternative methods should be developed for carrying overflow tailings from dewatering ponds to the storage basins, including alternative deposition methods, with a view to improving the process which is currently undertaken using trucks. An investigation campaign is programmed, composed of SPT, CPTU, Vane, permeability and laboratory tests; ArcelorMittal will continue monitoring the performance of the system.
