Reactivity Studies During Drying and Relocation of Lead-Zinc-Gold Tailings: Phase 1 - Preliminary Evaluation and Laboratory Testing
Description:
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation requested U.S. Bureau of Mines (USBM) assistance in developing design data for moving lead-zinc-gold tailings from their current location without disrupting the existing chemically stable conditions. This report presents results of USBM work in determining (1) the minimum required time to air dry the tailings to approximately 20 pct moisture under various drying conditions both in the laboratory and in the field, (2) the degree of oxidation or reduction that
occur…
