Complete Mine Site
At ACI Northwest, we don't just handle one or two aspects of a mine reclamation project. We aim to help you reclaim the entire mine site, ensuring you can make the most of the space an abandoned mine offers. Whether it's a gold mine, a silver mine, or any other mineral extraction site in Idaho, Washington, or Montana, older mines can pose unique challenges due to fewer regulations in the past. Safety is our top priority, and we are committed to implementing the proper procedures and processes to handle your mine reclamation project safely and effectively.
Contact us today for comprehensive mining services to restore your entire mine site. We have the expertise and dedication to tackle even the most challenging mine reclamation projects, ensuring a safe and successful outcome.
Tailings Pond
A tailings pond, contained within a tailings dam, holds all the byproducts of the mining process, often in slurry form—a mixture of water used for mining and mineral particles from crushed rocks. A tailings pond poses a major concern for mine reclamation as it can be quite large and designed to contain dangerous, toxic byproducts harmful to the environment.
At ACI Northwest, we understand the importance of responsibly managing these waste materials. We will find a unique solution tailored to your land, ensuring the safe and effective handling of tailings ponds during the mine reclamation process.
Stream and Creek Bed Reconstruction
Streams and creek beds can become tainted and the surrounding land ruined during mining, especially at abandoned mines established before strict guidelines were in place. Reconstructing these areas is crucial for restoring the ecosystem, ensuring functionality, scenic appeal, and demonstrating the site is not contaminated. ACI Northwest specializes in waste removal and reconstructing areas around streams and creek beds, focusing on functionality and aesthetics to revitalize the environment.
Hazardous Waste Removal
Any mining project is going to produce some level of hazardous waste. Today, companies working within mines are expected to dispose of hazardous waste properly and to keep harmful mining byproducts contained in tailings dams. However, if you’re working with an older abandoned mine, there could be quite a bit of hazardous waste on the property to dispose of. We can take care of hazardous waste removal, ensuring the safety of the people who will use your land as well as minimal impact on the environment.
Demolition
The layout of the mine site and any structures left behind will require demolition during a mine reclamation project. At ACI Northwest, we have the proper equipment for the job. We provide complete demolition and cleanup of older mine sites, ensuring the remnants are disposed of correctly. Whether you own the land or are acquiring it, all you have to worry about is securing the property. We take care of the rest, including demolition services and complete mine reclamation in Washington, Idaho, or Montana.
