environmental effects of gol-e-gohar iron ore mine on groundwater of the area
gol-e-gohar iron ore mine of sirjan in southern part of iran is a large open pit that operates below the groundwater table and during mining operation, dewatering is required to prevent operation processes from flooding. current operation is going on by digging wells in or out of the pit and pumping to prevent flooding. as a result of the former dewatering operation a vast deep cone of depressi...
Gold, Silver and Iron in Iron Oxy-hydroxide Precipitate Formed in Process of Acid Mine Drainage
Oxidation of sulfide-containing ores is the main cause of Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), which is an environmental problem associated with both the abandoned and active mines. Iron-bearing sulfide minerals can be oxidized and form mine waters with high sulfate content, low pH, high electrical conductivity, high redox potential, and high concentrations of iron, aluminum, and other heavy metals. In th...
متن کاملHeavy metals from acid mine drainage - impacts and modelling strategies
Mine drainage is increasingly becoming a problem in the UK as water tables rise and acid drainage waters rich in heavy metals impact river systems. The impacts of mine drainage at two sites, the River Pelenna in Wales and the Wheal Jane Mine in Cornwall is assessed. Mathematical models have been developed and applied to investigate heavy metal pollution in the Pelenna case study and the models ...
متن کاملIron Dynamics in Acid Mine Drainage
The oxidation of iron sulfides in mine wastes is the main cause of acidic, sulfate, and trace element-rich acid mine drainage (AMD). However, the suite of reactions that transform iron from one species to another is quite complex. A reasonable strategy for controlling AMD production is to identify and further slow the slowest, rate-determining step (RDS) in the overall process. This paper provi...
متن کاملRecovery of Metals from Acid Mine Drainage
Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) poses a severe pollution problem attributed to current and past mining activities. Low pH, high concentrations of sulphates and various heavy metals makes AMD treatment a major concern because of possible deleterious effects of the effluent on the surroundings. Treatment methods to address AMD focus on neutralizing, stabilizing and removing problem pollutants through va...
