Abstract: Canada has long been one of the world�s major mining centres and has been at the forefront in the 
development and application of paste and thickened tailings technology for surface disposal of fine-grained 
tailings waste. In 1973 under the guidance of Dr. E. Robinsky, the first thickened tailings operation for 
surface disposal was inaugurated at the Kidd Operation in Ontario. Over the years, thickening improvements 
have been implemented and today Kidd ranks as the longest operating thickened tailings surface disposal site 
in the world.
