Underground mining operations routinely encounter water inflows associated with open fractures, joints and fault structures.
Examples of mine grouting operations include construction of grout curtains in conjunction with shaft sinking, pre-grouting in advance of tunnel development or ventilation raise construction, as well as overcoming high-pressure, high-volume water inflows associated with deep aquifers and fault structures.
Peter White is retained by owners, engineers and contractors to provide site specific solutions for mine grouting projects, including the selection of suitable grouting materials, appropriate equipment and safe, efficient work methodologies.
