  Abstract In the report, wetland technology is described in which the main reactive layer is limestone gravel (rather than organic material) which is overlain by a fine gravel filter and soil. The three-year project included laboratory and field studies. Vertical aerated wetlands, simulated by columns, constructed in the field and in the laboratory, were operated during the project. The report presents a summary of results given in previous reports and summaries of results obtained using water from Butte, MT, and field studies at the Rockford Tunnel, near Idaho Springs, CO.

  Title The Golden Cross Mine water management system Type Journal Article
  Year 1994 Publication New Zealand Mining Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 14 Issue Pages 15-21  
  Keywords Australasia Coromandel Peninsula cyanides gold ores Golden Cross Mine metal ores mines New Zealand North Island tailings Waihi New Zealand waste water water management water treatment 30, Engineering geology  
  Abstract Because of its location in the sensitive Coromandel Peninsula, strict water management and environmental requirements had to be met on the Golden Cross Mine Project. This led to the development of new technologies for cyanide recovery and the adoption of advanced water management and water treatment systems. This paper discusses the water management and treatment system adopted for contaminated water at Golden Cross. While permit discharge levels must be and are met for mine discharge waters, the ultimate success of the water management system is demonstrated by the results downstream; biological surveys show no changes to the resident aquatic life in the river.

  Title Reclamation and Decontamination of Metalliferous Mining Tailings Type Journal Article
  Year 1990 Publication Int. J. Mine Water Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 9 Issue 1-4 Pages 223-235  
  Keywords Britain tailings metals land reclamation environmental damage ground water surface water Wales treatment options  
  Abstract Parts of Britain have large accumulations of metalliferous tailings derived from mining in the lath, 19th and 20th centuries. These tailings were never subject to land reclamation schemes at the time of mining and are situated very close to water courses. They cause considerable environmental damage in terms of contamination of soils, dust blow and pollution of water courses and groundwater. In some parts of the country mine drainage is a major part of river pollution. In recent years, particularly in Wales, efforts have been made to “clean up” these sites. This has involved using techniques to isolate and contain the spoil, diversion of water courses, and the installation of water treatment facilities and drainage and the establishment of a vegetation cover. Research is also being initiated to investigate ways of decontaminating these metalliferous spoils as an alternative to using covering systems to reclaim them.
