In selected areas, additional cross-sectional 2D surveys gave detailed information about the geoelectrical situations in the embankments. This information is valuable for sim

Known problem areas were associated with low resistivities, even though the resistivity measurements alone did not provide enough information to confidently come to a decision about the status of the

Resistivity measurements may have the possibility of detecting internal erosion processes and Anomalous seepage at an early stage before the safety of the dam is at stake. The tec

7、 Sweden. Tailings dams are a type of Embankment dam that impounds mining waste. The mining waste, which consists of ?ne-grained waste materials left after mechanical or chemical separation of minerals from crushed ore, is typically pumped into a storage reservoir and the tailings dams are built to h

The aim of this study was to examine the extent of the damage around the latest reported sinkhole and to examine the integrity of the entire dams in order to detect other deficiencies. The investigation comprised temperature, resistivity, induced polarisation (IP) and sel

Measuring temperature over time is a powerful and sensitive way to detect leakage pathways and to estimate fillow rates. The

Other methods with the possibility to scan larger areas are therefore requested, and most geophysical methods are of this kind. Among the methods tested, resistivity measurements were considered the most

In recent years much effort has been put into dam safety work in Sweden. During the same time a number of incidents involving tailings dam have occurred,

12、which have increased consciousness among the public and the authorities. As a consequence, strong focus has also been put on dam safety for tailings dam. Eight large tailings dams were in operation in Sweden in 2003, and an additional one commenced in 2004.Three of them have been subjected to uncont

This type of investigations has been conducted many times as regard to mine drainage (e.g. Abraheemetal. 1990； Buselli and Lu 2001； Yuval andoldenburg 1996).The technique is similar to the one used to detect leakage from land fills. Using resistivity for safety investigations of tailings dams is, however, less common, but the technique is similar to leakage detection
