Methodology for Mining Closure Covers Design

A methodology approach is proposed for mine closure design, considering the long‐term physical, chemical and
biological stability criteria.
The challenge of a comprehensive vision of the solution to this problem focuses on providing quantifiable solutions
that ensure the long‐term behavior of the coverage.
In this way we move from a qualitative solution to a quantitative version of the problem.
For this purpose, the state of the art is used in multiple disciplines that have left valuable information in the last
two decades, but until now not oriented to the integral vision of the problem
