Abstract |
The technical knowledge and practical experience accumulated by industry and others in abating acid mine drainage (AMD) is being proactively applied at every phase of the mine life cycle. This paper traces the mine life cycle from exploration to post closure monitoring and maintenance, and reviews AMD abatement measures that have become an integral component of exploration and mining activities. Attention is increasingly being given to evaluating AMD potential as part of exploration work, and studies related to project feasibility and design. Mining, mineral processing and waste management options are selected taking into consideration their suitability to inhibit AMD. These inhibition measures are typically committed to in closure plans submitted at the permitting stage. Mines are operated and decommissioned, often progressively, as planned and in accordance with environmental protection policies. Es wird über das Problem der Säurebildung aus sulfidischen Aufbereitungsbergen und taubem Gestein im Verlauf des Existenzzyklus eines Bergwerkes berichtet. In Kanada werden seit etwa 10 Jahren intensive Forschungen für Vorhersage, Kontrolle und Eindämmung von Saürebildungen im Bergbau betrieben. Schwerpunkt ist dabei die sulfidische Oxidation (2FeS2 + 7O2 = 2FeSO4 + 2H2SO4) unter Einwirkung verschiedener physikalischer, geochemischer und biologischer Faktoren. Diese Reaktion führt zu einem Komplex weiterer chemischer Reaktionen unter Bildung von zusätzlicher Säure und Lösung von Metallen. Daraus ergeben sich zwei Hauptmöglichkeiten diesen Prozeß zu steuern: 1. die Sulfidoxidation verhindern, 2. den Oxidationsprozeß verlangsamen. Mit dem heutigen Wissensstand ist es möglich, das Säurebildungspotential von Aufbereitungsbergen zu bestimmen, den Prozeß der Sulfidoxidation von Mineralen unter bestimmten physikalischen, geochemischen und biologischen Bedingungen zu modellieren und die Säurebildung von Aufbereitungsbergen und sulfidischen Gesteinen einzudämmen. Im einzelnen werden Maßnahmen zur Bewertung des Säurebildungspotentials und zur Kontrolle und Reduzierung dieses Prozesses während der Existenzstadien Exploration, Durchführbarkeitsstudie und Genehmigung, Gewinnung und Stillegung eines Bergwerkes erläutert. An Beispielen wird gezeigt, daß bei rechtzeitgem Erkennen des Säurebildungspotentials in der Phase der Exploration Verfahren und Maßnahmen bezüglich Aufbereitung, Umgang mit Aufbereitungsbergen ausgewählt werden können. |

Abstract |
It was aimed toward developing solutions to major water quality problems in the base metal mining regions of northeastern New Brunswick and specifically toward insuring that the extremely valuable fishery resources and aquatic environments of the region could be maintained in the face of existing and future base metal mining developments. The program analyzed in detail the fishery resources of the region, their water quality requirements, the mineral resources of the region and the many aspects of mining waste management at each phase of mine development. This paper describes the reasons for the initial concern and the approach adopted toward finding a solution. It briefly summarizes the important findings and recommendations made to support the conclusion that the fishery resource can be maintained and co-exist with current and future base metal mining developments in the region |

Abstract |
In the late 1890s, silver, lead and zinc deposits were discovered along the headwaters of the Blackfoot River, northeast of Missoula, Mont. Settlers began mining the metals in earnest, and eventually the mines became known as the Upper Blackfoot Mining Complex (UBMC). Many of the mines were operated long enough to supply metals for World War II weaponry, but after the war the mines were abandoned, and by the 1960s, their orange-tainted runoff began to concern both passersby and state officials. In 1991, the state contacted the current owners of several of those mines-including the Mike Horse and the Anaconda-to negotiate a voluntary cleanup. The American Smelting and Refining Co. (ASARCO) and the Atlantic Richfield Co. (ARCO) agreed to remediate the sites' metal-enriched, moderately to severely acidic drainage, which was discharging into the upper Blackfoot River. As part of effort to reclaim the Mike Horse and Anaconda mines, engineers with McCulley, Frick and Gilman Inc. (MFG), Boulder, Colo., developed an integrated, passive wetland treatment system that will take several years to reach full treatment capacity in the high-elevation environment, but will last for decades. (Constructed and restored wetlands have also been part of the remediation of other UBMC mines, such as the Carbonate and Paymaster mines.) The Mike Horse and Anaconda system, designed to meet National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) restrictions, concentrates primarily on zinc and iron and, to a lesser extent, on copper, lead and other metals. |
