design and construction for operation and long term effective performance”, which was initiated by SveMin1 in 1998 due to the increased focus on tailings dams and the long term complex of problems. A steering group representing financers and Swedish mining companies has directed the project and especially the work on this State of the Art report. The project has been carried out as an industrial research project at the Div. for Geotechnology at Luleå University of Technology, even though the researcher has been located in Stockholm at the Sweco office. I want to thank all people within the steering group for valid input and comments on this report, as well as all financers for making this project, and especially this report, possible. Financers are Georange2 (50%), SweMin (25%), Sweco VBB AB3 (25%) and MiMi4 (2%).
