Copper Isotope Fractionation and the Evolution of Sulfide Alteration in a Sudbury Tailings Impoundment
(University of Waterloo, 2016-10-18)The fate of dissolved Cu in the Copper Cliff Central Tailings Impoundment was investigated to better understand the extent of Cu stable isotope fractionation accompanying the oxidation of Cu-bearing sulfide minerals and ... -
Diavik Waste Rock Project: Geochemical and mineralogical investigations of waste-rock weathering
(University of Waterloo, 2012-12-05)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 ... -
Investigation of Gas Transport Rates Through a Covered Waste Rock Pile and Synchrotron Studies on the Sulfide Oxidation Reaction
(University of Waterloo, 2017-01-19)This thesis presents a field based investigation into gas transport mechanisms and rates through a waste-rock pile with a low permeable cover, and a synchrotron based study into intermediate sulfidic species that are ...
