Modeling groundwater inflows to pit and underground mines and assessing the impact of mining projects on the surrounding groundwater flow regime is vital for the planning, engineering and performing of mining projects. Mine working interaction with the groundwater flow regime is a dynamic process that the user can model with standard MODFLOW packages implemented on Model Muse. This platform has high performance due to its "design by objects" that optimizes the conceptualization of boundary conditions and other model elements, reducing construction time and improving the interpretation of output data. This course covers the use of MODFLOW with Model Muse for numerical modeling of the groundwater flow impact from pit development, underground mines and seepage from water dumps and tailings storage facilities.…more info.
