  Title Passive Treatment of Coal Mine Drainage Type Journal Article
  Year 1994 Publication Bureau of Mines Information Circular Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (down) Ic-9389 Issue Pages 1-35  
  Keywords wetland Grubenwasser treatment Wasserreinigung Wasserbehandlung mine water  
  Abstract Passive methods of treating mine water utilize chemical and biological processes that decrease metal concentrations and neutralize acidity. Compared to conventional chemical treatment, passive methods generally require more land area, but utilize less costly reagents and require less operational attention and maintenance. Currently, three types of passive technologies exist: aerobic wetlands, wetlands that contain an organic substrate, and anoxic limestone drains. Aerobic wetlands promote mixed oxidation and hydrolysis reactions, and are most effective when the raw mine water is net alkaline. Organic substrate wetlands promote anaerobic bacterial activity that results in the precipitation of metal sulfides and the generation of bicarbonate alkalinity. Anoxic limestone drains generate bicarbonate alkalinity and can be useful for the pretreatment of mine water before it flows into a wetland. Rates of metal and acidity removal for passive systems have been developed empirically. Aerobic wetlands remove Fe and Mn from alkaline water at rates of 10-20 g×m-2×d-1 and 0.5-1.0 g×m-2×d-1, respectively.

  Title Environmental considerations of active and abandoned mine lands: lessons from Summitville, Colorado Type Journal Article
  Year 1995 Publication US Geological Survey Bulletin Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (down) 2220 Issue 38 Pages  
  Keywords acid mine drainage mining environmental effect remediation environmental assessment USA Colorado Summitville 1 Geography  
  Abstract Extreme acid-rock drainage is the dominant long-term environmental concern at the Summitville mine and could have been predicted given the geological characteristics of the deposit. Extensive remedial efforts are required to isolate both unweathered sulfides and soluble metal salts in the open-pit area and mine-waste piles from weathering and dissolution. Results of studies as of late 1993 indicate that mining at Summitville has had no discernible short-term adverse effects on barley or alfalfa crops irrigated with Alamosa River water. Remediation of the site will help to ensure that no adverse effects occur over the longer term. -from Editor
