Preventing acid mine drainage from mine tailings
Mining activity always has high impact on its surroundings, being waste deposition the cause of multiple and complex problems to the environment. One of them is Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), causing acid water percolation through large areas in the mine site. Portugal was a prosper tungsten producer from the beginning of the XX century, having its apogee during World War II. Nowadays there are mill...
متن کاملHeavy Metals Tolerance Potential of Fungi Species Isolated from Gold Mine Tailings in Ghana
Introduction: Heavy metal contamination has necessitated a less expensive and non-destructive clean-up technique such as mycoremediation. This study aimed to isolate, identify, and evaluate the tolerance of fungi species in different concentrations of heavy metals for their potential use in bioremediation. Materials and Methods: Fungi were isolated by serial dilution and spread plate technique...
متن کاملMetagenome Sequence of a Microbial Community from the Gold Mine Tailings in the Kuzbass Area, Russia
The metagenome of a microbial community of the sediments from a highly acidic iron-rich puddle at the tailings dump of the Komsomolskaya gold mine in the Kuzbass area, Siberia, Russia, was sequenced. Binning of contigs yielded a near-complete genome of the dominant bacterium, representing a novel deep lineage of Deltaproteobacteria.
متن کاملModelling of Radiological Health Risks from Gold Mine Tailings in Wonderfonteinspruit Catchment Area, South Africa
Mining is one of the major causes of elevation of naturally-occurring radionuclide material (NORM) concentrations on the Earth's surface. The aim of this study was to evaluate the human risk associated with exposure to NORMs in soils from mine tailings around a gold mine. A broad-energy germanium detector was used to measure activity concentrations of these NORMs in 66 soil samples (56 from fiv...
متن کاملPreliminary Investigation of Arsenic and Copper in Plants and Tailings at Telfer Gold Mine
The successful establishment of revegetation using native plants is crucial to help phytostabilization of mine tailings. To assess arsenic (As) and copper (Cu) pollution levels and the feasibility of using native plants in rehabilitation of mine areas, a preliminary investigation was conducted to measure As and Cu in mine wastes and native plants at Telfer Gold Mine. The top layer of soil/mine ...
