Diavik waste rock project : blasting residuals in waste rock piles
2011Mining generates and moves the highest volume of material in the world. At mine sites throughout the world, explosives are used to fragment rock into workable size fractions. Mine-water chemistry can be influenced by residual blasting agents used during mining.

Waste-rock hydrogeology and geochemistry
Applied Geochemistry, 2015Abstract The oxidation of sulfide minerals in waste rock has the potential to generate low-quality drainage that can present a significant challenge to mine owners, regulators, and other stakeholders. Challenges involved in managing waste rock include the large volume of waste rock produced and the difficulty in predicting the quality and quantity of

Strategy for Radioactive Waste Disposal in Crystalline Rocks
Science, 1981A strategy for waste disposal is proposed in which the repository would be situated in a crystalline rock mass beneath a blanket of sedimentary rocks whose ground-water flow characteristics are well understood. Such an approach exemplifies the concept of multiple barriers to the isolation of radioactive wastes from the biosphere.

Waste Rock and Tailings Mixtures as a Possible Seal for Potentially Acid Forming Waste Rock
2003Potentially acid forming (PAF) waste rock contained in dumps formed as a result of open cut mining of metalliferous orebodies are conventionally sealed or covered using a near-saturated, low permeability compacted clay layer, protected with a mulch layer and/or vegetated growth medium.

Applied Geochemistry, 2013
Abstract During mining operations, explosives are used to fragment rock into workable size fractions. Mine-water chemistry can be affected by blasting agent residuals, including NH3, NO 2 - , NO 3 - , Cl−, and ClO 4 - .

The Diavik waste rock project: Water flow through mine waste rock in a permafrost terrain
Applied Geochemistry, 2013Abstract A field experiment is being carried out at the Diavik diamond mine in northern Canada to investigate the influence of unsaturated flow behavior on the quality of drainage from mine waste rock piles in a region of continuous permafrost. This paper is part of a series describing processes affecting the weathering of waste rock and transport of

Diavik waste rock project : thermal transport in a covered waste rock test pile
2011Covers are widely used in the management of mine tailings and waste rock and most current cover designs and constructions are in temperate regions. However in cold regions, certain features and processes are unique and they can be utilized to reduce the production of acid rock drainage (ARD).
