Numerical Simulation of the Groundwater in Bulang River- Red Stone Bridge Water Source

In order to put forward a reasonable mining scheme to ensure the safety of Bulang River-Red Stone Bridge water source, the standard visualization software Visual MODFLOW is adopted to simulate the groundwater flow in the study area. The model identification and verification results indicate that the model can reflect the actual hydrogeology conditions, and can be used to forecast groundwater flow. Based on comparative analysis of the prediction results of mining schemes, a reasonable scheme with exploitation quantity of 35000 m3/d is determined to ensure the normal operation of the water source, under which neither the local ecological environment nor the Hailiutu River flow is influenced.
