INFLUENCE OF POSSIBLE SECONDARY SULPHATE MINERALIZATION ON THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE TO SURFACE WATERS
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-06-08)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 16, 1995-02-01 (reissued 2017-06-08)Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a major environmental pollutant of both surface and ground waters. Intensive sampling of drainage from mine adits has revealed a seasonal variation in the Zn:Cu ratio. This is linked to secondary ... -
AN OBJECTIVE INDEX FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF THE CONTAMINATION OF SURFACE AND GROUND WATERS BY ACID MINE DRAINAGE
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-08)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 22, 1995-07 (reissued 2017-08)Temporal and spatial comparisons of acid mine drainage (AMD) contaminated waters are difficult due to the complex physico-chemical nature of the pollutant. An objective index has been developed and evaluated for assessment ... -
PROCEDURE FOR THE ESTIMATION OF THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE TO SURFACE WATERS AND ITS MANAGEMENT
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-08)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 29, November 1995 (reissued 2017-08-16)The rehabilitation of a mine producing acid mine drainage (AMD) involves four discrete steps. These are site characterization, the development of an AMD water quality management protocol, a remediation strategy and finally ... -
Protocol for monitoring and predicting the impact of acid mine drainage: Designing and setting up a geological information system
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2018-04)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 25, 1995-08 (reissued 2018-04) -
PROTOCOL FOR MONITORING AND PREDICTING THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE: SEDIMENT SAMPLING
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-05)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 28, 1995 (reissued 2017)Sampling acid mine drainage (AMD) impacted sediments is complex requiring appropriate field sampling techniques to ensure representative samples which are both repeatable and reproducible. This report examines the important ... -
A SUBSTRATE CLASSIFICATION INDEX FOR THE VISUAL ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE IN LOTIC SYSTEMS
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-08)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 24, July 1995 (reissued 2017-08)The impact of acid mine drainage (AMD) on lotic receiving waters is complex and difficult to assess. While low pH, elevated sulphate and metals all characterize AMD these vary both spatially and temporally, with high ... -
A SURVEY OF SOIL AND VEGETATION IN THE AREA SURROUNDING THE AVOCA MINES, Co. WICKLOW
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-05-24)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 31, 1995-12-01 (reissued 2017-05-24)Metal Content was determined in soil and vegetation around the eastern zone of the disused copper and sulphide mines at Avoca in Co. Wicklow (south-east Ireland). A 250 x 250 m grid survey was conducted covering a total ... -
A Synoptic Overview of the Avoca-Avonmore Catchment and the Mines
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-05-15)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 26, 2, 1995 (reissued 2017)As part of a long term study of the effects of the abandoned Cu-S mines at Avoca County Wicklow in Ireland a short overview was created of the Avonmore-Avoca River Catchment including summaries of tributaries; topography ... -
WATER QUALITY OF THE SURFACE WATERS AT AVOCA MINES AND THE AVOCA RIVER: Interim Report May to October, 1994.
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-06-08)Technical Report (Water Technology Research), 12, 1994-11-01 (reissued 2017-06-08)During this interim period of six months from May to October, 1994, 42 separate surface water sites were monitored. Surface waters were classified into nine discrete source categories. These are 1. Springs and seepage ...
