Summary : This book is not designed to be an exhaustive work on mine wastes. It aims to serve undergraduate students who wish to gain an overview and an understanding of wastes produced in the mineral industry. An introductory textbook addressing the science of such wastes is not available to students despite the importance of the mineral industry as a resource, wealth and job provider. Also, the growing imp- tance of the topics mine wastes, mine site pollution and mine site rehabilitation in universities, research organizations and industry requires a textbook suitable for undergraduate students. Until recently, undergraduate earth science courses tended to follow rather classical lines, focused on the teaching of palaeontology, cryst- lography, mineralogy, petrology, stratigraphy, sedimentology, structural geology, and ore deposit geology. However, today and in the future, earth science teachers and students also need to be familiar with other subject areas. In particular, earth science curriculums need to address land and water degradation as well as rehabili- tion issues. These topics are becoming more important to society, and an increasing number of earth science students are pursuing career paths in this sector. Mine site rehabilitation and mine waste science are examples of newly emerging disciplines. This book has arisen out of teaching mine waste science to undergraduate and graduate science students and the frustration at having no appropriate text which documents the scienti?c fundamentals of such wastes.

Summary : "Contamination of ground and surface water by the oxidation products from sulfidic mine waste impoundments is a widespread environmental problem. To help alleviate this problem a program was designed whereby an oxidizing sulfidic waste impoundment was to be studied to characterize probable mechanisms of oxidation in the impoundment as well as the fate of metals as they were transported downgradient. From this information methods of controlling dissolved metal transport were to be identified. A field site with a mine tailings impoundment which is releasing mine waste-derived heavy metals into an unconsolidated aquifer was sampled and characterized. Piezometers were installed upgradient from, within, and downgradient from the waste. During a 2.5 year period water samples were collected and analyzed for 17 dissolved constituents, and field measurements for pH, redox potential, dissolved oxygen, temperature, alkalinity, conductivity were made. Results indicated that at the site dissolution occurs as a consequence of oxidation of sulfide minerals in the unsaturated zone of the mine waste. Infiltrating seasonal precipitation carries the oxidation products downward into the saturated zone and into an underlying aquifer. Below the impoundment this metal-rich acid water is partially neutralized by calcareous strata, and precipitation of pH-sensitive species occurs oxygen consumption. Downgradient attenuation oxidized mineral species and increased oxygen without significant correlates with more consumption. Because oxidation of dissolved metal and attendant coprecipitation was identified as a primary mechanism of attenuation, air injection at a location immediately downgradient from the impoundment is postulated as a method of increasing oxidation rates and coprecipitation efficiency."--Document.

Summary : Nowhere is the conflict between economic progress and environmental quality more apparent than in the mineral extraction industries. The latter half of the 20th century saw major advances in the reclamation technologies. However, mine water pollution problems have not been addressed. In many cases, polluted mine water long outlives the life of the mining operation. As the true cost of long-term water treatment responsibilities has become apparent, interest has grown in the technologies that would decrease the production of contaminated water and make its treatment less costly. This is the first book to address the mine water issue head-on. The authors explain the complexities of mine water pollution by reviewing the hydrogeological context of its formation, and provide an up-to-date presentation of prevention and treatment technologies. The book will be a valuable reference for all professionals who encounter polluted mine water on a regular or occasional basis.

Summary : The single most important factor for the successful application of a geochemical model is the knowledge and experience of the individual(s) conducting the modeling. Geochemical Modeling for Mine Site Characterization and Remediation is the fourth of six volumes in the Management Technologies for Metal Mining Influenced Water series about technologies for management of metal mine and metallurgical process drainage. This handbook describes the important components of hydrogeochemical modeling for mine environments, primarily those mines where sulfide minerals are present—metal mines and coal mines. It provides general guidelines on the strengths and limitations of geochemical modeling and an overview of its application to the hydrogeochemistry of both unmined mineralized sites and those contaminated from mineral extraction and mineral processing. The handbook includes an overview of the models behind the codes, explains vital geochemical computations, describes several modeling processes, provides a compilation of codes, and gives examples of their application, including both successes and failures. Hydrologic modeling is also included because mining contaminants most often migrate by surface water and groundwater transport, and contaminant concentrations are a function of water residence time as well as pathways. This is an indispensable resource for mine planners and engineers, environmental managers, land managers, consultants, researchers, government regulators, nongovernmental organizations, students, stakeholders, and anyone with an interest in mining influenced water. The other handbooks in the series are Basics of Metal Mining Influenced Water; Mitigation of Metal Mining Influenced Water; Mine Pit Lakes: Characteristics, Predictive Modeling, and Sustainability; Techniques for Predicting Metal Mining Influenced Water; and Sampling and Monitoring for the Mine Life Cycle.
