Abstract


The Tarat aquifer provides water for the population (AEP) of the city of Arlit and Akokan, as well as for industrial water needs (AEI). However, in the mines, water can be an obstacle to mining. This study aims to contribute to a better understanding of the hydrodynamic functioning of the Tarat aquifer in order to design a dewatering device. A methodological approach focusing on the piezometric study and the mapping of hydrodynamic parameters allowed to highlight that the uranium mineralizations are below the piezometric level in the western, northern and central parts. The latter require dewatering, hence the installation of a system comprising three boreholes.
