5 Key Factors for Successful Mine Revegetation
Here are five key factors that Erizon considers when approaching mine site revegetation so that we can guarantee project success.
What is Good Quality Soil?
What makes soil “good” or “bad”? The definition of good soil depends on different factors and the intended land use. For instance, farmers want fertile soil that is easy to till and has good water retention. Meanwhile, for engineers, good soil drains well and compacts easily. While there’s no universal definition of good soil, we […]
What is EcoArmour?
EcoArmour is an eco-friendly, sprayable synthetic erosion control blanket innovated by leading Australian environmental solutions provider Erizon. It has been scientifically developed to protect the soil surface from various degrees of erosion and withstand the harshest weather conditions– from dry, arid conditions to extreme wind and rain events. Its unique blend of minerals, interlocking fibres, […]
What is PM10 Dust and How Can Mine Sites Control It?
Dust is an inevitable part of mining operations. The good news is that there are ways to control dust lift-off and minimise its health and environmental impacts. In this article, we will discuss what PM10 dust is, its impacts, and how mining companies can implement measures to reduce the exposure of workers and nearby communities. […]
Top Grass Species For Tailings Storage Facility Revegetation
Tailings dam revegetation and rehabilitation is an important requirement for mine sites. Choosing the wrong grass could have a large negative impact on the project.
Mine Reclamation
Mine Reclamation Mine reclamation is the process of restoring the environment for post-mining use once mining operations have ceased. This is done to mitigate the destructive effects caused by mining and to ensure the return of a sustainable ecosystem. Mine site reclamation involves four key stages: contouring the land, replacement of topsoil, land revegetation, and […]
