  Title Desulphurization of tailings with low neutralizing potential; kinetic study and flotation modeling Type Book Chapter
  Year 1999 Publication Sudbury '99; Mining and the environment II; conference proceedings Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords acid mine drainage chemical properties chemical reactions environmental analysis environmental effects experimental studies flotation geochemistry kinetics laboratory studies mathematical models neutralization pH pollution sulfur tailings 22 Environmental geology 02A General geochemistry  
  Abstract Environmental desulphurization is an attractive alternative for acid generating tailings management as demonstrated during the last few years. In fact, such process placed at the end of the primary treatment circuit allows to reduce greatly the amount of problematic tailings by concentrating the sulphidic fraction. Moreover, the desulphurized tailings (non-acid generating) have the geotechnical and environmental properties for being used as fine material in a cover with capillary barrier effects. To produce desulphurized tailings, non selective froth flotation is the most adapted method as shown in many previous works. Desulphurization level is fixed by tailings sulphur content (or sulphide content) and neutralization potential NP. The final residue should have enough NP to compensate for his acid generating potential AP. In this paper, the authors present the results of laboratory tests conducted in Denver cells for studying the sulphide flotation kinetics of four mine tailings which are characterized by a weak neutralization potential (under 37 kg CaCO (sub 3) /t). Tailings 1, 2, 3 and 4 contain respectively 5.27, 10, 4.25 and 16.9 sulphur Wt. %. Tailings 1 and 2 are cyanide free and are well floated at pH around 11 by using amyl xanthate as collector. Collector dosage was optimized for these tailings and the results show that Tailing 2 need more collector. However, Tailings 3 and 4, which come from a gold cyanidation process, could not provide good sulphide recovery with xanthate collector because of the pyrite depression. To overcome this problem, amine acetate was used successfully but induces important entrainment. The consumption of this collector was also optimized. The results of kinetic tests and collector dosage were combined and modeled to establish relationships which allow to estimate the desulphurization performances.

  Title Magnesium hydroxide as a treatment for acid mine drainage in northern Minnesota Type Book Chapter
  Year 1993 Publication Proceedings of the Annual National Meeting – American Society for Surface Mining and Reclamation, vol.10 Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages 204-217  
  Keywords acid mine drainage acidification alkaline earth metals chemical properties cobalt copper drainage experimental studies hydroxides laboratory studies lime magnesium magnesium hydroxide metals Minnesota nickel northern Minnesota oxides pH pollution porous materials reagents remediation residence time trace metals United States waste disposal zinc 22, Environmental geology  
  Abstract Three alkaline materials were investigated for their suitability to treat acid mine drainage generated by a research facility located at a remote site in northern Minnesota. The materials investigated were hydrated lime, sodium hydroxide, and magnesium hydroxide. All three reagents were successful at raising pH and removing trace metals from the drainage, but the magnesium hydroxide had the added benefit of producing a maximum pH of approximately 9.5, while the other two reagents resulted in pH values of 12 and greater. In addition, the magnesium hydroxide was available as a high solid content slurry (58%) which simplified application and handling, and which produced the lowest volume of sludge of the materials tested.
