COMANCO Secures Containment Pond Infrastructure at Nevada Mining Operation
COMANCO has completed essential liner repairs and batten bar installation at a mining site in Nevada. This project focused on maintaining the integrity of leachate ponds and preg-ponds, which play a crucial role in the containment of byproducts used in silver and gold production.
Understanding the Role of Preg-Ponds in Mining
Preg-ponds are a critical component of mining operations, specifically in the extraction of precious metals like silver and gold. These ponds store a concentrated solution rich in dissolved minerals produced through heap leaching. This process involves percolating a chemical solution through crushed ore to dissolve valuable metals. The solution collected in the preg-pond is then processed to extract and refine the desired metals. Ensuring the structural integrity of these containment systems is crucial to prevent leaks, minimize environmental risks, and maintain the efficiency of mineral recovery operations.
Ensuring Long-Term Containment and Efficiency
Maintaining proper containment is vital for mining operations, preventing environmental contamination and ensuring regulatory compliance. As part of our commitment to excellence, COMANCO conducted liner repairs and secured batten bar components to reinforce containment structures. Our experienced team, led by Field Manager James and supported by Superintendents Carlos, Pablo, and Alejandro, worked diligently to complete the repairs precisely and efficiently.
