TY - CONF A1 - Kruschwitz, Sabine A1 - Niederleithinger, Ernst T1 - ERT Measurements on tailings dams using multi-channel spectral induced polarization (SIP) N2 - The often poor construction and low maintenance level of tailings dams has caused serious accidents. The EC funded Project TAILSAFE is aimed at the non-destructive assessment of tailings facilities for stabilization analyses and the development of better management methods. The focus of geophysical field studies was on the discrimination of different layering and construction steps as well as the determination of the spatial (relative) water content in the dams. SIP measurements at three tailings facilities different in their geological backgrounds, composition and age have been conducted.
