Water is vital to the mining industry, especially in South America where many mining companies are located in areas where the resource is highly scarce and environmentally sensitive. One of these locations is the Atacama’s Desert—the driest in the world. However, mining companies require steady and reliable delivery of water to their processes to operate and accomplish production goals. Reclaim water pumping systems represent an opportunity to reuse an abundant water source by recycling the water from the process and returning it to the mine. h is minimizes the demand for fresh water by approximately 20 percent.
