Hydrogeologic Characterization

Tierra Group provided hydrogeological support for data characterization and developed a conceptual and groundwater model to evaluate mine water inflows and the associated groundwater drawdown due to mine dewatering activities.

Water Management Technical Review

Tierra Group provided a water management technical review to support the feasibility study. The project included a site visit to evaluate field conditions and the existing/ongoing hydrogeologic investigations.

In addition, Tierra Group provided technical assistance during fieldwork execution.

Site-Wide Water Balance
