Many regulations concerning mining operations require proper containment and control of hazardous substances. Geomembranes contribute significantly to compliance with environmental regulations in mining operations by providing effective containment and control of hazardous substances.
When used to line containment facilities such as tailings ponds, waste storage areas, and leach pads, geomembranes act as impermeable barriers that prevent the release of pollutants into the surrounding environment. This containment helps mining operators comply with regulations governing water quality, soil protection, and environmental conservation.
