Successful implementation of mine remediation projects depends on a wide range of key aspects, one of the most critical is water management. Irrespective of both its importance regarding remedial success and its relevance to remediation cost, water management issues are frequently underestimated in the design and execution of remedial work. In this regard, the paper summarizes some of the most relevant findings from more than 20 years of implementing the WISMUT programme, one of the biggest mine reclamation projects worldwide.
