Fig. 8.5 Complex mine with all its TSFs, related dams and major pipelines, weirs
18 elements shown in Fig. 8.5 were then split into sub-elements as indicated in the
previous two examples, for a total of over 50 elements to be analysed in the mine
risk assessment.
Of course, there are inter-dependencies in this system (the obvious ones are those
resulting from “cascading” ponds) that have to be considered in the analyses.
