In my country's Lesser Khingan Mountains, mineral resources are abundant, and a large amount of metal mineral resources are being mined and processed. A large amount of waste slag produced in the process is usually stored in tailings ponds. Unlike conventional tailings ponds, cold-region tailings ponds experience freeze-thaw cycles caused by significant changes in external temperature during the sedimentation and consolidation process, thus exhibiting complex mechanical behaviors, which pose challenges to the service performance and safety and stability of tailings ponds.
[0003] The tailings deposition model test is an effective method to study the deposition and consolidation characteristics of tailings. By designing a model box with a real-time monitoring system, the tailings slurry is discharged into the model box in layers, and the solid particles therein are deposited and consolidated under the action of their own weight to simulate the layered ore discharge, deposition, and consolidation process in the actual tailings pond project. The monitoring system in the model box can reflect the multi-directional deposition characteristics of the tailings, the sorting characteristics of the sediment particles, the distribution of the infiltration lines in the accumulation body, etc., as well as the influence of various factors on the deposition and consolidation characteristics, such as the ore discharge concentration, the ore discharge speed, and the solid particle morphology.
