Aecom to provide dewatering plan for Canadian mine

Cadillac Ventures has selected Aecom to supply an implementation plan for dewatering at the Thierry Mine site in north-east Ontario, Canada.

Aecom has completed a baseline water sampling programme to determine effective treatment strategies for the water in the pits and mine shaft.

In the next phase, Aecom will deliver the dewatering implementation plan, which will cover recommended flow, dewatering duration and water quality, and a site plan detailing the required infrastructure for dewatering and water treatment.

The plan will also include a preferred treatment technology recommendation with a conceptual level cost estimate and a status report regarding consultation activities with regulatory bodies.
