A good turnout of audience members heard the panel\u2019s thoughts, and were invited to give their opinions, on several questions relating to making tailings safe. Everyone agreed that significant advances are being made in safer tailings management using phytoremediation, dry stacking and underground storage. However, the historical legacy of often abandoned tailings dams, especially those within short distances of habitations, is of significant concern and needs more research and funding for remediation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_119\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-119\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-119\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/em3group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/315\/2020\/03\/WIM_Panel_Making_Tailings_Safe_27Feb2020-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/em3group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/315\/2020\/03\/WIM_Panel_Making_Tailings_Safe_27Feb2020-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/em3group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/315\/2020\/03\/WIM_Panel_Making_Tailings_Safe_27Feb2020-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/em3group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/315\/2020\/03\/WIM_Panel_Making_Tailings_Safe_27Feb2020-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/em3group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/315\/2020\/03\/WIM_Panel_Making_Tailings_Safe_27Feb2020-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sites.exeter.ac.uk\/em3group\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/315\/2020\/03\/WIM_Panel_Making_Tailings_Safe_27Feb2020-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-119\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left to right, chair Laura Newsome (Camborne School of Mines) and panel members Richard Elmer (Knight Piesold), Morwenna Rogers (Paterson &amp;
