Exploring the resource potential of TSF‘s


Exploring the resource potential of TSF‘s

Gutzmer, J.; Osbahr, I.; Leißner, T.; Satgé, L.; Unger, G.; Büttner, P.

The keynote presentation was given at the EIT Raw Materials Workshop “ReMining and Process Residues”
in Berlin, 18-19 January 2017. The presentation illustrates why and how Tailing Storage Facilities (TSF) are being under exploration today. The example of the Tiefenbachhalde Altenberg shows the approach of the Helmholtz Institute Freiberg for Resource Technology. A 3D-model of the relevant processing parameters was created, to give an estimation of the re-mining potential for valuable metals.
