Assessment of Cadmium as a Contaminant in Mine Closure

Proceedings of the International Conference on Mine Closure, 2008
Contamination of soil and water by cadmium from both mine residues, and the use of phosphate fertilizers applied during mine rehabilitation activities, can result in bioaccumulation by terrestrial and aquatic plants and animals, which in turn can lead to human uptake of this element.

Geochemical modelling aids in mine closure – implications of orebody genesis to mine closure approaches

Proceedings of the International Conference on Mine Closure, 2011
Safe and successful mine closure represents a fundamental work element that needs to accommodate the geochemical conditions existing at the completion of the mining and ore processing effort. Given the interests in limiting costs and time associated with mine closure efforts enhanced prior understanding of the geochemical conditions likely to exist ...
