Abstract
Summary
The presented results confirm the applicability and high efficiency of the proposed integrated approach, based on the application of electrical resistivity surveys, exploratory core drilling, and wireline logging. It allows not only a reliable delineation of the studied zone of low permeability but also an evaluation of the efficiency of the installed relief wells. The acquired hydrogeological cross sections are of great importance for the development of an applicable technological solution regarding seepage control and the stability of the tailings dam wall.
