About Bradley Junction Ne

The primary purpose of Bradley Junction Ne is tailings. Tailings dams contain waste material from mining operations — typically a slurry of finely ground rock left over after valuable minerals have been extracted. These structures require ongoing monitoring because tailings can contain heavy metals and other contaminants. The dam is owned by The Mosaic Company (private). It impounds the Unnamed Pond near Mulberry.

The dam stands 105 feet tall and stretches 10,138 feet across, creates a reservoir covering 96 acres, has a maximum storage capacity of 1,920 acre-feet, and collects water from a drainage area of 96 square miles.

This dam has a significant hazard potential classification, meaning that a failure could cause significant economic damage — flooding roads, bridges, or property downstream — but is not expected to result in loss of life.

At 105 feet, this dam is taller than 98% of all dams in the United States.
