Engineering Properties of Mine Tailings
Journal of the Soil Mechanics and Foundations Division, 1971The engineering properties of tailings from nine mines are summarized to demonstrate that these are good engineering materials. Such properties as gradation, specific gravity, mineral content, laboratory maximum and minimum density, in-place density and moisture, permeability, triaxial shear data, and one-dimensional compression data are presented in ...

Biopolymer Stabilization of Mine Tailings
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2013AbstractA feasibility study was performed on using xanthan gum and guar gum, two biopolymers that are naturally occurring and inexpensive, to stabilize mine tailings (MT). The simple fall cone method was adopted to evaluate the liquid limit and undrained shear strength of sun-dried MT mixed with xanthan gum or guar gum solutions at different ...

Combined tailings and mine waste
2017The benefits of combining tailings and mine waste in a relatively homogenous manner, in which tailings just fill the voids between the waste rock particles while the waste rock maintains particle-to-particle contact, has been the subject of study over the course of several years. Such a combination of materials could be used for a closure cover or as a

Abandonment of Mine Tailings Ponds
Canadian Water Resources Journal, 1986In response to growing concern about the long-term environmental impact of abandoned mines and their tailing ponds, regulating authorities are beginning to request that abandonment plans be submitted with license applications. This paper suggests criteria that such plans should meet and emphasizes the need to ensure that adequate funding will be ...

PHYTOSTABLIZATION OF SULPHIDE MINE TAILINGS
SGEM International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference� EXPO ProceedingsOrphaned or abandoned sulphide tailing disposal sites pose significant environmental hazards, including eolian dispersion, water erosion, acid mine drainage, and heavy metal mobility. Phytostabilization, an eco-friendly strategy, entails the use of alkaline amendments alongside non-native plant species capable of thriving in environments with high ...

Mine Tailing Control and Remediation
Inquiry@Queen's Undergraduate Research Conference Proceedings, 2016This paper is based on a mine located in northern Ontario, specifically the discharges within the mine tailings, the consequences of unsafe levels of chemical discharge and possible preventative methods. It discusses the location of the mine and surrounding area, the area that it covers, in particular the area of the tailings pond and the location of ...
