Construction of numerical model of flow using finite elements method was preceded by gathering all available geological and hydrogeological data concerning the base, on which the facility is placed. Geotechnical investigations of the tailings management facility showed the substantial variability of filtration ratio inside the impoundment, what required to separate, from the whole area, the sub-areas with different hydrogeological properties. Three-dimensional filtration model was calibrated in the respect of filtration ratio and infiltration volume from the facility level into the free water table %N 3 %P 83-93 %V 31 %D 2009 %I Oficyna Wydawnicza Politechniki Wrocławskiej %L epos1325
