Mine Waste, Tailings, and Residuals Sludge Drying

As today’s technologies evolve there is a new and upcoming need for a unit that accelerates the drying and mixing process of Mine waste and tailings. The Brown Bear aerator can accomplish many of these tasks in a quick and efficient method VS traditional methods of mixing or aerating with bulldozers.

The Brown Bear is put to use mixing tailings waste with differing materials such as feldspar, lime, topsoil, or yard waste for mine reclamation projects.

Additional uses are for aerating and accelerating the drying of settling ponds or lagoons of waste and tailings. By mixing and stacking the material is exposed to wind and solar drying. Stacking of the waste into windrows helps to shed new rainfall and helps prevent moisture absorption.

Versatility of the base tractor can be seen with the use of other work tools such as a snow blower, brush shredder, or broom sweeper attachment.
