A SUBSTRATE CLASSIFICATION INDEX FOR THE VISUAL ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE IN LOTIC SYSTEMS
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 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 ... -
PROCEDURE FOR THE ESTIMATION OF THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE TO SURFACE WATERS AND ITS MANAGEMENT
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-08)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 ... -
Evaluation of the fisheries potential of the Avoca catchment
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-08)The Avoca-Avonmore is a potential salmonid river which has been severely impacted by industrial development throughout its length but especially in its lower reaches due to the abandoned Cu-S mines at Avoca. This study ... -
AN OBJECTIVE INDEX FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF THE CONTAMINATION OF SURFACE AND GROUND WATERS BY ACID MINE DRAINAGE
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 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 ... -

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE ON THE AVOCA RIVER: Acute Toxicity Experiments in the Field Using Macro-invertebrates
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-06-08)Field toxicity experiments were conducted in the Avoca River (Ireland) during August and September 1994 in order to evaluate the toxicity of acid mine drainage (AMD) to a number of selected macro-invertebrate species. The ... -
INFLUENCE OF POSSIBLE SECONDARY SULPHATE MINERALIZATION ON THE IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE TO SURFACE WATERS
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 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 ... -
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE ON THE AVOCA RIVER: Metal Fluxes in Water and Sediment. Part III. Metals in Water and Suspended Particulate Matter.
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-06-08)Water and suspended particulate matter (SPM) was collected at weekly intervals during low flow conditions from the Avoca River (May and August, 1994). The total concentration of Zn, Cu, Cd and Fe was measured in both the ... -
FIELD ASSESSMENT OF ACID MINE DRAINAGE CONTAMINATION IN SURFACE AND GROUND WATERS
(Tigroney Press, ireland, 2017-06-08)Both sulphate and conductivity are excellent indicators of AMD contamination. This is due to sulphate being an end product of pyrite oxidation. Unlike pH, they are both extremely sensitive to AMD even where large dilutions ... -
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)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 ... -
