Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4862.
The overall goals of the four projects proposed within Phase 1 are to provide an enhanced understanding of the physical and geochemical properties of the roaster waste; and, to screen for potentially viable remediation alternatives that may warrant additional research (e.g., long-term laboratory experiments, pilot-sca...

This research study is designed to investigate the processes related to water quality and quantity (collected at different scales) draining from country rock stockpiles that are located in areas of continuous permafrost. The quality of water draining from a country rock stockpile is determined by the combined effects of oxygen transport in the air phase, biogeochemical processes that control miner...
