CSA Technology
Research Database
This comprehensive
database provides a single mega-file of all the
unique records available through its 3 components:
the CSA Materials Research Database with METADEX,
CSA High Technology Research Database with
Aerospace, and the CSA Engineering Research
Database. The database content represents the most
comprehensive and current coverage of the relevant
serial and non-serial literature available.
Sources covered include over 4,000 periodicals,
conference proceedings, technical reports, trade
journal/newsletter items, patents, books, and press
releases.
Subfiles that make up the CSA Technology Research
Database can be searched separately.
The subfiles are:

Abstract
The opportunity to examine the internal
characteristics of two waste rock piles
through their full depth arose during the
rehabilitation activities at two mines sites.
Waste rock dumps at both sites were excavated
and removed to open pits for permanent
closure. The sites are located within climatic
and geologic regimes that offer a striking
contrast. The purpose of the study was to
examine the internal structure of the waste
rock dumps and obtain observations with
respect to structure, geochemistry, fluid flow
pathways, weathering and other characteristics
that may aid our understanding of the
long-term behaviour of suiphide bearing waste
rock systems. The research program was
sponsored and directed by the International
Network for Acid Prevention (INAP), together
with Rio Tinto Ltd., Inco Ltd., Placer Dome
Inc., EGi (Environmental Geochemistry
International Pty Limited, Sydney, Australia),
R & D Start (Graduate Program, Australia), and
NSERC (Natural Sciences and Engineering
Research Council of Canada). The research
activities were conducted jointly between the
Department of Mining and Mineral Process
Engineering at the University of British
Columbia, Canada, the Department of Civil
Engineering at The University of Queensland,
Australia, and EGi. This paper describes the
field characterization program that was
implemented at the sites, highlights the
geochemical and physical laboratory testing
program, and presents the results of numerical
modelling undertaken to describe the flow
system within the two waste rock dumps. The
specific details of the investigations
summarized here are described by Fines et al.
(2003) and Tran et al. (2003).
