Reuse of Mine Wastes (Mine Tailings and Mine Waste Rocks) to Produce Geopolymer Building Materials 

Presented By: Arash Nikvar-Hassani
To achieve sustainable construction and respond to the ever-increasing demand for construction materials, it is an urgent need to use innovative technologies, like geopolymerization, to produce green and sustainable construction materials. Therefore, this project investigates the utilization of low-reactive copper mine tailings (MT) with slag (SG) as a supplemental cementitious material to produce green bricks based on geopolymerization technology.
