Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the use of the in-situ nanoelectronics purification technique of open pit hydrops for the green mining technology. Open pit mining can result in serious groundwater seeping, while direct drainage of the open pit hydrops may cause pollution of surface water and decrease of ground water, which has a negative influence on the vulnerable ecological environment of Shendong mining area. It is necessary to exploit a hydrops purification technique in open pit that could lead to a positive evolution of the open desert mining area. Based on the climate characteristics and the open pit conditions, the in-situ nanoelectronics purification technique and treatment process of open pit hydrops was presented. The natural oxidation pond has been applied, which had been high-effectively applied into Majiata open pit mine area. It has both theoretical and practical value for the green mining technology with similar conditions.
