Abstract

Changes of infiltration in time under conditions of mine dumps stockpiling have been studied. Infiltration supply is one of the main variables that determine the changes in the hydrogeological conditions, rise or decline of groundwater level. Based on the results of field observations the author considered the ground water influence on infiltration supply.

The aim of the study is the change in infiltration in groundwater from dumps Western Donbas (for example, blade w. Samara).

To investigate the magnitude of infiltration over time benchmark groundwater from wells (3 wells in group 3 St.) are analyzed. During 1991 - 2013 years, the wells are studied which situated downstream of the blade and the blade up.

The results obtained allowed to establish the variation of infiltration supply groundwater during the study period depending on the level of groundwater.

These results demonstrate that infiltration in the target portion ranges from 1,6×10-3 to 4,4×10-3. It explains the blade is in the low part of the relief that increases runoff. When the level of groundwater infiltration is value decreases with a decrease in the level – increases.

Based on the analysis performed that the calculation method chosen infiltration can more clearly describe the relationship with the level of infiltration of groundwater. The results obtained can used in the calculation of project groundwater level.
