Condor Gold | La India TSF Feasibility Design

Project Highlights:

  • Geotechnical Assessment
  • Hydraulics
  • Hydrology
  • Seismic Stability
  • Water Balance
  • Water Management
  • Tailings Storage Facility

Tierra Group provided a feasibility-level Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) design for Condor Gold’s La India Project permitting, a planned 2,000 tpd open pit mine in western Nicaragua. TSF embankments used rockfill from the open pit and a geomembrane liner for tailings and supernatant containment. Geotechnical investigation and analyses and water management in a tropical environment presented the greatest project challenges.
