DAMS & TAILINGS

How we design, monitor and manage our tailings storage facilities to protect people and the environment.

Tailings storage facilities (TSFs) are among the most important structures at any mine. Each BarrxGold facility is managed with its own control and monitoring system, sized to its specific design and conditions, and overseen by trained internal teams supported by independent external specialists.

How we manage TSFs

SAFETY IN PRACTICE

01

Continuous monitoring

Instruments, inspections and data review track the condition of every facility around the clock.

02

Trained teams

Dedicated internal staff are trained and certified to operate, inspect and maintain each structure.

03

Independent review

External engineers regularly review design, construction and performance.

04

Emergency preparedness

Safety plans, drills and simulations are carried out with regulators and local communities.

Preventive management

TSF Safety Plan

Each facility has a safety and emergency plan that is regularly updated with regulatory agencies. Our teams take part in training, inspections and simulation exercises, always acting preventively in the management of these structures.
