    Main Drainage

    Main drainage is the process in which surplus water that is not wanted in the underground mine is pumped up to the surface. Goulds Pumps has pumps designed for high-pressure services including: boiler feed, reverse osmosis, shower service, pressure boosting, plus much more.

    Active Dewatering

    Active dewatering means lowering the water table outside the mining area in order to prevent ground water from entering it. Deep wells are drilled and submersible borehole pumps are installed. Goulds Pumps provides borehole pumps ranging from 4" to 12" diameter for a variety of capacity requirements.

    Slurry Pumping

    Goulds Pumps provides a variety of pumping solutions for transferring highly abrasive slurries. Heavy-duty horizontal pumps (models XHD, 5500 and SRL) are available for tough slurry pumping applications.

    Sludge and Slurry Removal - Raft Drainage

    Seepage and rainwater is pumped out from the bottom of the pit using high-head drainage pumps, preferably mounted on top or suspended from underneath a single float or raft. If the solids content in this water is high, end suction or submersible slurry pumps are recommended for the drainage operation.
