Ausenco will also present a technical session led by Marcella García, Senior Geotechnical Engineer at Ausenco Brazil, who will give a presentation entitled "Multidisciplinary Methodology for Evaluating Project Maturity in Tailings Disposal and Management Structures," focusing on the importance of structured and traceable tools to strengthen the safety and sustainability of these projects.

Challenges and opportunities

According to José Ordinola, Manager of Geotechnical and Tailings Services at Ausenco Peru, the biggest challenge for the mining industry is to accept the inherent complexity of tailings structures and manage them in a proactive and planned manner.

"Tailings deposits are earth structures influenced by multiple factors, such as water, seismicity, and geography, which require a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach. Only by recognizing this complexity can we allocate the resources and knowledge necessary to ensure safe and sustainable management," said Ordinola.

The specialist highlighted that Ausenco approaches tailings management with a comprehensive vision that combines engineering, technological innovation, and environmental commitment, pillars that guide its participation in the 10th Tailings Congress.

"Our goal is to optimize every stage of the process, from the plant to final disposal, and from conceptual stages to facility closure, reducing impacts, improving efficiency, and contributing to modern mining that is more responsible toward people and the environment," he added.

With more than three decades of global experience, Ausenco reaffirms its commitment to developing sustainable solutions that respond to the challenges of today's mining industry, promoting safe, resilient practices adapted to the geographical and social context of the region.
