Mining

Mining and mineral processing cannot take place without water.

 

Mining uses between seven and nine billion cubic metres of water per year, which is about as much water as a country like Nigeria or Malaysia uses in total in a year.Mining and burning coal accounts for half of all water withdrawals in the United States, which is the same amount of water that pours over Niagara Falls in five months.

 

Polypipe provides innovative plastic piping solutions for the following applications where water is used in mines:

 

  • Transport Infrastructure
  • Water Delivery and Distribution
  • De-watering and Storage                                               
  • Processing
  • Water Treatment
  • Welfare Infrastructure
