Mine Tailings & Quarry Anionic Soil Matrix Tackifier
in Montana

Rapid snowmelt in arid conditions will violently scour your slopes. You must spray drought-tolerant seed in a bonded fiber matrix (BFM) for immediate protection on steep glacial till. Lay geogrids or over-excavate to stabilize the subsoil and stop bentonite clay from swelling and destroying your site.

Operational Constraints for Mine Tailings & Reclamation

Mine tailings and quarry cuts present one of the most hostile environments for revegetation. These sites feature extreme pH imbalances, sterile particulate matter, and unnaturally steep cut angles. Airborne toxic dust is an immediate operational hazard that triggers severe MSHA and EPA environmental fines. Standard agricultural hydroseeding fails completely in these sterile conditions. The site requires a heavy-duty, high-viscosity soil capping matrix that locks down dust instantly upon application and provides a highly retentive micro-environment to force seed germination in otherwise dead soil.

Meeting MDT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, Section 208 Specifications

OHRA GreenTack anchors seed and mulch directly to the subsoil, providing the rain-fast shear strength required by MDT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, Section 208. Its microplastic-free botanical hydrocolloid network forms a 3D matrix. It resists high-velocity storm runoff and keeps synthetic toxins out of the watershed.

The matrix prevents "fisheye" lumping inside your hydroseeder pump. This stops pump cavitation and reduces friction head loss. You maximize your tank's spray payload and eliminate constant agitation adjustments on the job site.
