Three large-scale instrumented waste rock piles were constructed at the Diavik Diamond Mine in the Northwest Territories, Canada. These experimental waste rock piles (test piles) are 15 m high and are part of an integrated field and laboratory research program to characterize and compare low-sulfide waste rock and drainage at various scales.

Concepts for Co-Mixing of Tailings and Waste Rock
2003The co-mixing of tailings and waste rock involves the intimate blending of tailings and waste rock to create a new material (Co-Mix) with superior physical and hydraulic properties. The new material has a low hydraulic conductivity, low compressibility, high water retaining capacity and high shear strength.

This paper presents the results and findings of geochemical and mineralogical testwork conducted on samples collected from waste rock dumps at two mine sites, located in South Carolina, USA (Site 1) and Sudbury Ontario, Canada (Site 2). Important aspects of the relationship between the physical and geochemical aspects of the dumps are also presented ...

Geochemistry of waste rock at dumping area
International Journal of Mining, Reclamation and Environment, 2009Geochemical characteristics and the increase in the total reactive surface area of the sulphide-bearing rock due to weathering processes at dumping area, are expected to enhance the oxidation of sulphides, leading to the generation of acid mine drainage (AMD). The study of the changes of geochemical characteristics of sulphide-bearing rocks showed that

Geotechnical characterization of mine waste rock
2011The determination of geotechnical charactertiscs of waste rock is essential for addressing issues of in situ hydrology and the stability of steep and high-standing dumps. Based on laboratory investigations and numerical modeling, this paper gives the geotechnical properties of a selected waste rock under saturated and unsaturated conditions.

Laboratory and field strength of mine waste rock
1983Synopsis Laboratory testing of samples of waste rock fill at Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, has enabled the quality of the rock fill to he defined in terms of its particle size distribution. The strength of poor quality rock fill has been determined by triaxial testing and by back-analysis of observed waste dump slips, and slope stability charts have ...
