Water is needed at mine sites for dust suppression, mineral processing, coal washing, and
hydrometallurgical extraction. For these applications, water is mined from surface water …

Sulfate and hydrated sulfate minerals are abundant and ubiquitous on the surface of the
Earth and also on other planets and their satellites. The humidity-buffer technique has been …

Soils and sediments containing sulphide minerals are common in settings with reducing
conditions. Development of oxidising conditions typically results in acid sulphate soil …

Sulfide minerals are common minor constituents of the Earth's crust. In some geological
environments, sulfides constitute a major proportion of rocks. In particular, metallic ore …

A more than 250 year-old mine dump was studied to document the products of long-term
arsenopyrite oxidation under natural conditions in a coarse-grained mine waste dump and …

A waste rock pile with initial high sulfide (10–20wt.%) and low carbonate content (1–2wt.%)
located at Dlouhá Ves in the Czech Republic has been investigated in two profiles …

The evaporation of As-rich leachates generated by the weathering of sulfide-rich mine
wastes accumulated in abandoned tailing dams of the La Concordia mine, triggers the …

Sulfide-rich tailings produced by mineral processing are prone to oxidation and cause many
pollution problems in the surrounding environment; therefore, this issue has become a focus …

This paper summarizes the results of a flow-through experiment of our own design intended
to investigate the water–rock interactions between pyrite embedded in black shale and …

In Central Europe, and particularly in Hungary, economically important (Csajághy et al.
1953) potassium-rich (pseudo) trachyte and K-metasomatized volcanic rocks are recognized …
