While acknowledging that case studies on the return on investment for good waste management programs are “ambiguous,” he says miners who invest the time and resources into a well-designed waste management program tailored to its needs “can achieve ROIs from 1,000% to over 5,000%.” He notes that although the benefits of a well-designed and implemented waste management program are known by the mining industry, confusion remains amongst the leadership of mining companies over exactly what on-site waste management looks like, what the benefits are that arise from one, and how expenditures in good waste management practices can be justified.

Whether “it’s re-thinking how waste from day-to-day activities can be handled better, how scrap metals could be recycled or repurposed, or how hazardous materials are prevented from contaminating ground waters, mining companies can benefit greatly from improved waste management practices,” he says., one of the world’s largest producers of iron ore, to prevent scrap metal from entering the muck circuit at one of its mines near Sudbury, minimizing interruptions to the operation’s ore management.
