Wassa Akyempim Golden Star Project Day 2
Engineered drainage channel construction using high-strength geotextile systems at the Wassa Akyempim Golden Star Project.
Yellow Power International's continued operations at the Wassa Akyempim Golden Star Project demonstrate their expertise in specialized drainage and water management systems essential for mining infrastructure. This phase of the project focuses on the installation of engineered drainage channels utilizing advanced geotextile technology and precision excavation techniques to ensure effective water control across the mining site.
The drainage construction involves the strategic placement of high-strength geotextile fabric along excavated channels, which serves multiple critical functions including soil separation, filtration, and reinforcement. Yellow Power International's experienced civil engineering team carefully positions the geotextile material to prevent soil migration while allowing controlled water flow, a crucial requirement in Ghana's tropical climate where heavy rainfall can impact mining operations.
Working with CAT excavators and supporting equipment, the company executes precise trenching operations that follow engineered drainage plans designed to channel surface water away from critical infrastructure areas. The backfilling process incorporates selected granular materials that work in conjunction with the geotextile system to create robust, long-lasting drainage solutions capable of handling high water volumes during the rainy season.
Yellow Power International's attention to detail is evident in the careful handling and placement of materials, with supervisory personnel ensuring compliance with technical specifications throughout the installation process. This systematic approach to drainage construction reflects the company's understanding that effective water management is fundamental to maintaining operational efficiency and structural integrity in mining environments, ultimately contributing to the long-term success of the Wassa Akyempim Golden Star Project.
