  Abstract As a result of the collapse of a mine tailing dam in april 1998 about 40 km of the Agrio and Guadiamar valleys were covered with a layer of pyrite sludge. Although most of the sludge was removed, a small amount remains in the soil of the Agrio valley and the aquifer remains polluted with acid water (ph<4) and metals (10 mg/L Zn, 5 mg/L Cu and Al). A permeable reactive barrier was build across the aquifer to increase the alcalinity and retain the metals. The barrier is made up of three sections of 30 m longX1.4 m thickX5 m deep (average) containing different proportions of limestone gravel, organic compost and zero-valent iron. The residence time of the water in the barrier is about two days. Within the barrier, the pH values increase to near neutral mainly due to calcite dissolution. Metals co-precipitate as oxyhydroxides, and they are also adsorbed on the organic matter surface. Down-stream the barrier, the total pollution removal is around 60-90% for Zn and Cu, and from 50 to 90% for Al and acidity.

  Abstract Acid mine drainage (AMD) causes environmental pollution that affects many countries having historic or current mining industries. Preventing the formation or the migration of AMD from its source is generally considered to be the preferable option, although this is not feasible in many locations, and in such cases, it is necessary to collect, treat, and discharge mine water. There are various options available for remediating AMD, which may be divided into those that use either chemical or biological mechanisms to neutralise AMD and remove metals from solution. Both abiotic and biological systems include those that are classed as “active” (i.e., require continuous inputs of resources to sustain the process) or “passive” (i.e., require relatively little resource input once in operation). This review describes the current abiotic and bioremediative strategies that are currently used to mitigate AMD and compares the strengths and weaknesses of each. New and emerging technologies are also described. In addition, the factors that currently influence the selection of a remediation system, and how these criteria may change in the future, are discussed.

  Title Management of AMD at Pine Creek Mine. Die Beherrschung des AMD-Problems in der Pine-Creek-Mine Type Conference Article

  Abstract In der Regenzeit 1991/1992 wurden überraschend im Bereich des australischen Goldbergwerks Pine Creek saure Grubenwässer festgestellt, die eine ernsthafte Umweltgefährdung und einen deutlichen Anstieg bei den Betriebskosten verursachten. Diese sauren Grubenwässer traten als Folge von Laugungserscheinungen in den Halden auf. Zur Verminderung der Reaktionsfähigkeit der sulfidischen Berge wurde beschlossen, die Halden mit mehreren Schichten inerten Materials geringer Permeabilität abzudecken. Diese Abdeckung wurde anschließend verdichtet und begrünt. Bei den späteren Abbauarbeiten wurde eine prophylaktische Minimierung der begünstigenden Reaktionsbedingungen vorgenommen. Es wurde eine Integration von Abbau und Sanierungsmaßnahmen realisiert, bei der offene Tagebauflächen mit Haldenbergen verfüllt wurden. Die haldengefüllten Tagebaurestlöcher wurden außerdem teilgeflutet, um den Sauerstoffzutritt zu minimieren. Aus den gewonnenen Erfahrungen wird die Schlußfolgerung gezogen, das AMD-Problem bereits in der Planungsphase zu berücksichtigen und umfassende Untersuchungen einzuleiten. Es sind nicht erst im Stadium der Sanierung, sondern bereits bei den Abbauaktivitäten geeignete Maßnahmen einzuleiten, um unangenehme Überraschungen durch saure Grubenwässer, die übrigens sehr teuer werden können, zu vermeiden.
