MossWell Products have been used extensively in mining operations throughout the world.

Mining presents many water related challenges. Operators are often faced with the task of designing dewatering wells to prevent flooding of mine zones under production. MossWell casing and shutter screen are ideally suited for this type of well where strength and durability are important requirements.

Development of ground water resources for processing operations is also a crucial issue for many mine owners. Production wells must be hydraulically efficient, long lived, and designed to be compatible with effective maintenance and redevelopment methods. MossWell shutter screen and casing have proven themselves worldwide to be the best available products for water supply wells.

Systems to transport water, chemicals and slurries should be constructed from materials developed for site specific conditions. Factors such as erosion and corrosion must be considered when selecting piping for conveyance of these fluids.

Roscoe Moss Company manufactures casing, screen and transmission pipe from a variety of steels including: low carbon, copper-bearing, corrosion resistant high-strength low alloy, and stainless. In conjunction with mill metallurgists, we offer assistance in selection of steel chemistry to best meet the unique requirements of the mining industry.
