Mining operations require dependable liquid storage systems to support a variety of essential functions — from process water supply and dust suppression to temporary containment of slurry, waste streams, or tailings effluent. Building on decades of experience supplying modular tanks for industrial and environmental applications, ModuTank now offers engineered solutions tailored to the broader mining sector. Our above-ground, membrane-lined tanks provide secure containment where earth basins, lined ponds, or welded structures are impractical, costly, or too slow to deploy.
Mining Process Water and Tailings Tanks
Mining projects often operate in remote, rugged environments where access, weather, and site constraints make traditional storage construction difficult. ModuTank’s bolt-together systems are designed for rapid installation using simple tools, eliminating the need for cranes or specialized fabrication. Tanks can be deployed on compacted soil pads and configured in rectangular, square, or irregular footprints to fit graded sites, haul yards, or constrained processing zones. High-performance liners such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or XR-5 geomembranes safeguard process water integrity and containment performance — crucial for mineral separation circuits, drilling campaigns, and chemical treatment loops.
As production scales and water cycles evolve, ModuTank storage systems can expand to meet increased demand. Sizes range from thousands to millions of gallons, making them ideal for supplemental process water storage, stormwater buffer capacity, tailings handling, thickener overflow, and emergency bypass containment. Unlike dug ponds prone to seepage or regulatory challenges, ModuTank’s above-ground, double-lined systems provide controlled, adjustable containment with proven chemical resistance and reduced environmental exposure risk.
By offering fast deployment, robust performance, and flexible sizing, ModuTank’s mining process water & tailings tanks provide the mining industry with dependable liquid storage infrastructure. Whether used for dust suppression reserves, mineral processing support, exploration staging, or temporary tailings containment, ModuTank delivers adaptable solutions built to withstand demanding sites and evolving operational needs.
