Vision
Future topic: Mine Water - water in mining and mining situations
In nearly all parts of the world mining activities influence water:
- Water must be lifted to enable mining
- Water can be the basis for special mining technologies (e.g. in-situ leaching)
- Water is necessary for mining and processing of unearthed raw materials
- Water is contaminated by mining activities
Aims of the Mine Water Research Center Freiberg
- Initiation of interdisciplinary research
- Initiation of junior research groups
- Performance of training events (summerschools, lab-courses)
