The Experimental Characterization of Iron Ore Tailings from a Geotechnical Perspective

The mining industry produces large amounts of tailings which are disposed of in deposits, which neglects their potential value and represents important economic, social and environmental risks. Consequently, implementing circular economy principles using these unconventional geomaterials may decreas...
