Geochemical Characterization and Reactive Transport Simulation of Metal Leaching and Acid Generation in Waste Rock from the Ekati Diamond Mine, NT
Principal Investigator: Blowes, David W.
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5492. The objective of this project is to characterize the geochemical evolution of the waste-rock contained in Pigeon waste-rock storage area to refine management solutions for this waste stream. The proposed research activities will involve field collection of Pigeon waste-rock samples and installation of monitoring eq...

Geochemical Characterization and Reactive Transport Simulation of Metal Leaching and Acid Generation in Waste Rock from the Ekati Diamond Mine, NT
Principal Investigator: Blowes, David W.
Licensed Year(s): 2020
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4769. The objectives of this project are to provide critical insights into the potential long-term water quality impacts that may arise from waste-rock weathering; to develop scaling relationships to predict contaminant release, transport, and attenuation in the field; and to inform closure-cover design to mitigate the gene...

Waste Rock Studies at a Diamond Mine Site
Principal Investigator: Blowes, David W.
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2005
Summary: 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...
