Resources for Mine Review Boards
Mine review boards provide independent, non-binding advice to help mining companies manage risks related to design, construction, operation, reclamation, and maintenance of their mining landforms and landscapes.
This online resource offers a recipe for developing and operating a successful review board. It provides advice on drawing up the board’s charter, selecting members, preparing presentations made to the board, and sustaining a review board. A successful review board provides independent, high-quality, non-binding operational, and strategic advice to the owners of a mine.
The detailed process of how a review board functions is available under TASKS. Papers and copies of curated review board papers by other sources are available under the RESOURCES section.
Review boards are increasingly commonplace and necessary in the wake of recent catastrophic failures of tailings dams. The intention of this online resource is to generate a dialogue between knowledgeable professionals. Information derived from this discussion can be used to provide examples of good practice, and to update the website with the best information worldwide. Updates are available under NEWS and activities, courses, and workshops on review boards are available under EVENTS.
