MINING DAMS CLOSURE AND DE-CHARACTERIZATION PLANS
The term “closure” is not recent in the literature, nor in the processes of dam management and operation. If a mine is active and a dam is closed, it is necessary to establish constructions to extend this useful life or even look for new places for disposal or new forms of storage. That is, if there is a proactive and effective management, the closure plan is prepared at the beginning of the activities, allowing actions that allow the closure to be implemented gradually and, at the end of the useful life, there is a more favorable condition for closure. The challenge is still a huge one. The implementation of ESG - Environment, Social and Governance policies has been discussed repeatedly in the industry, especially in activities where the social and environmental impact is significant.

Abstract:
The term “closure” is not recent in the literature, nor in the processes of dam management and operation. If a mine is active and a dam is closed, it is necessary to establish constructions to extend this useful life or even look for new places for disposal or new forms of storage. That is, if there is a proactive and effective management, the closure plan is prepared at the beginning of the activities, allowing actions that allow the closure to be implemented gradually and, at the end of the useful life, there is a more favorable condition for closure. The challenge is still a huge one. The implementation of ESG - Environment, Social and Governance policies has been discussed repeatedly in the industry, especially in activities where the social and environmental impact is significant.
