The Northern Miner | Q&A with SRK: Todd Wisdom on Tailings Management - Reprocessing Could Unlock Valuable Metals

Todd Wisdom is a Principal Consultant in Nonconventional Tailings at SRK Consulting, specializing in tailings dewatering, mine waste management, and innovative tailings solutions that help mining companies improve efficiency, reduce risk, and maximize the value of existing assets.

Yesterday’s waste can become tomorrow’s resource. There’s still significant value in many tailings streams, both in the metals we originally targeted and in critical minerals that weren’t considered when the mine was first developed.

Wisdom sat down with The Northern Miner video host Devan Murugan.
