Diavik Waste Rock Project: Geochemical and mineralogical investigations of waste-rock weathering

The oxidation of sulfide minerals in mine waste rock has the potential to generate acidity and contribute sulfate, metals and other trace constituents to drainage. The rate and extent to which this process occurs are dependent upon climactic conditions and the overall hydrologic, geochemical and phy...
