[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of the present application.

[0024] Please refer to Figs. 1-2 The present application provides a technical solution: an ecological reinforcement and protection structure of a tailing pond dam slope, comprising a dam body 10 as a bearing main body, which is usually formed by layering compacted earth and stone materials, mining waste stones or treated coarse-grained tailings. In order to fundamentally ensure the overall stability of the dam body 10, an anti-slide pile 18 is arranged at the central position of the dam body 10 along the dam axis direction. The anti-slide pile 18 penetrates the dam body 10 vertically and extends into bedrock or stable soil layer. In the embodiment, the anti-slide pile 18 is preferably a reinforced concrete cast-in-place pile, with a diameter of 1.0-2.0 meters and a pile spacing of 4-8 meters. The specific parameters are determined according to the height of the dam body 10, geological conditions and stability calculation. The anti-slide pile 18 constitutes a rigid framework to resist deep sliding damage of the dam body 10.

[0025] In order to effectively control the saturation line inside the dam body 10 and prevent instability caused by excessive pore water pressure, a drainage flower pipe 19 is also horizontally laid inside the dam body 10. The drainage flower pipe 19 is preferably a double-wall corrugated perforated pipe made of high-density polyethylene material, with an outer layer wrapped with a filter geotextile to prevent fine particles from blocking the pipe. The drainage flower pipe 19 is arranged in layers and multiple rows inside the dam body 10, which can efficiently collect the seepage water inside the dam body 10 and discharge it to the drainage ditch 14 at the dam foot through the pipe system.

[0026] A rockfill prism 11 is arranged at the downstream slope foot of the dam body 10, i.e. the right side. The rockfill prism 11 is made of large-diameter and well-permeable block stones, with a triangular or trapezoidal cross section. The rockfill prism 11 serves as a pressure foot to increase the anti-slide stability of the dam slope. The left side of the dam body 10 is a stacked tailings 12.

[0027] On the slope surface of the dam body 10, a multi-layer structure is arranged in sequence from inside to outside. The multi-layer structure is a multi-stage filter layer 20 closely attached to the slope surface of the dam body 10. The multi-stage filter layer 20 is composed of multiple layers of materials with different particle sizes, which allows water to pass through smoothly while preventing the loss of fine-grained soil or tailings inside the dam body 10.

[0028] In this embodiment, the multi-stage counter-filtration layer 20 is composed of, from inside to outside, a layer of gravel 21, a layer of sandstone 22, and an outermost layer of geotextile 23. This structure, from coarse to fine and then to geotextile 23, ensures smooth drainage and soil stability.

[0029] Outside the multi-stage counter-filtration layer 20, a geogrid reinforcement 15 is laid. The geogrid reinforcement 15 is preferably made of high-strength polypropylene or polyester fiber material, with one end anchored to the slope surface and the other end extending and buried inside the dam body 10. The geogrid reinforcement 15 is laid in layers as the dam body 10 is filled. As a flexible reinforcement material, the geogrid reinforcement 15 significantly improves the tensile strength and integrity of the slope, effectively preventing shallow sliding.

[0030] At the outermost layer of the slope, a block stone mesh bag 16 is provided. The block stone mesh bag 16 is woven from high-strength, corrosion-resistant galvanized low-carbon steel wire and filled with block stones. The block stone mesh bag 16 forms a strong and permeable flexible slope protection, effectively resisting rainwater erosion and surface weathering, and adapting to slight deformation of the foundation.

[0031] To achieve ecological restoration, a slope greening layer 17 is also provided. The slope greening layer 17 is not simply placed between the geogrid and the mesh bag, but is implemented within and on the surface of the block stone mesh bag 16. Specifically, when filling the block stone mesh bag 16, nutrient soil is mixed and filled, or after the mesh bag is installed, a layer of nutrient soil is covered on its surface and suitable local climate grass and shrub seeds are sprayed and sown. The plant roots can penetrate the mesh bag and the counter-filtration layer, and take root in the shallow dam body 10, forming a living and self-repairing ecological protection system.

[0032] At the top of the rockfill prism 11, a drainage ditch 14 is provided. To prevent the collected water from infiltrating, HDPE impermeable membrane 13 is laid on the inner wall of the drainage ditch 14 and the surface of the rockfill prism 11 for impermeable treatment. The drainage ditch 14 not only receives internal seepage water from the drainage pipe 19, but also collects water discharged from the slope surface runoff, and finally leads away from the tailings area through pipeline and other facilities.

[0033] The anti-slide pile 18 provides deep anti-sliding force to resist overall sliding; the geogrid reinforcement 15 enhances the stability and integrity of the shallow layer of the slope; the rockfill prism 11 provides counter-pressure at the slope foot, together forming a three-dimensional, multi-level stable system.

[0034] Rainfall infiltration on the slope surface passes through the slope greening layer 17 and the block stone mesh bag 16, is filtered by the multi-stage counter-filtration layer 20, and then enters the dam body 10. The water is then collected by the drainage pipe 19 and introduced into the drainage ditch 14. The entire system effectively reduces the pore water pressure inside the dam body 10, ensuring long-term stability.

[0035] The outermost block stone net bag 16 provides strong physical protection against hydraulic erosion, and the slope-attached green layer 17 growing thereon further reduces water and soil loss through the soil fixation of plant roots and the interception of vegetation coverage, and consumes water through transpiration, so that the dam slope will gradually blend into the surrounding environment over time.

[0036] The above merely describes a preferred specific implementation of the present application, but the scope of protection of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art, within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, can make equivalent replacements or changes to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application, and all of the above should be encompassed within the scope of protection of the present application.
