On the direction of drainage measures at the Bauxite deposits of the Bikhvin district
Abstract
Mining operations at many bauxite deposits of the Tikhvin district are complicated by unfavorable hydrogeological conditions. In such conditions it is advisable to dewater overburden, which considerably increases the stability of the sides of open pits composed of sandy clay rocks and creates normal conditions for the operation of machinery and transport.
