Résumé
Acid mine drainage (AMD), which is primarily caused by the exposure of sulfidic minerals to oxygen and water during mining operations, remains a significant contributor to environmental pollution. Numerous technologies have been developed to prevent/control and treat AMD, including the isolation of waste from the atmosphere and treatment systems for AMD-impacted water. Many field studies on mine site reclamation have involved an individual AMD source and/or technology, with a limited number of studies looking at reclamation programs integrating multiple approaches to manage AMD stemming from both surface and underground sources. The former Franklin mine site in Nova Scotia, Canada, was impacted by the deposition of waste rock across the site and the discharge of mine water from underground workings, with the adjacent Sullivan’s Pond serving as the main environmental receptor. Site reclamation was completed in 2010 and involved the following: (1) excavation of the dispersed waste rock (117,000 m2) and backfilling with clean soil; (2) consolidation of the excavated waste rock into a covered, compact waste rock pile (WRP) (25,000 m2); and (3) construction of a passive treatment system for the discharging underground mine water. An extensive field sampling program was conducted between 2011 and 2018 to monitor a range of meteorological, cover material, waste rock, groundwater, and surface water quality parameters. The results confirm that the multi-layer, geomembrane-lined WRP cover system is an extremely effective barrier to air and water influx, thereby minimizing the rate of AMD generation and seepage into groundwater and eliminating all contaminated surface water runoff. A small AMD groundwater plume emanates from the base of the WRP, with 50% captured by the underground mine workings over the long term and 50% slowly migrating towards Sullivan’s Pond. Excavation of the former waste disposal area eliminated the AMD source from the previously dispersed waste, with only clean surface water runoff and a diminishing legacy groundwater plume remaining. Finally, the passive treatment system, which contains a series of treatment technologies such as a limestone leach bed and settling pond, successfully treats all mine water loading (~50 kg/day) discharging from the underground workings and surface runoff. Its additional treatment capacity (up to ~150 kg/day) ensures it will be able to manage any potential drop in treatment efficiency and/or increased AMD loading from long-term WRP seepage. This comprehensive study of mine site reclamation and AMD management at an abandoned mining site can be of great reference value for environmental management and policymakers in the mining sector.
