MINING

Mining is essential to produce the critical raw materials used in the world’s consumer and industrial products — from batteries to home-building materials. These mines demand sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective water management.

Gradiant offers an extensive range of solutions for the complete mining life cycle. From freshwater supply and wastewater reuse, often in remote locations, to advanced treatment and extraction in preparation for processing ore. Our innovative brine mining processes concentrate lean liquors and transform waste into new mineral resources.

Mining operations are highly complex and increasingly water-intensive with many projects located in arid regions with limited access to water, subject to ever more stringent discharge requirements. We have developed a deep understanding of this complex industrial sector and the challenges it faces. We have proven know-how to:

Yield the high-value end-product the industry demands
Efficiently process lower ore grades
Customize solutions for complex process streams
Ensure environmental discharge compliance
Design and operate facilities in remote locations
