摘要

Acid generating mill tailings resulting from hard rock mining pose significant environmental problems throughout the Western United States. One such example is the abandoned Mammoth Lode mine and mill facility in the Pinos Altos Mining District, Grant County, New Mexico. Mill tailings cover approximately one acre in area (3000 cubic yards) and are located inside primary drainage channels. In general the tailings are characterized by low pH, high exchangeable acidity, high future acid generation potential and elevated concentrations of several heavy metals. A plot study was performed to evaluate the potential for geochemical treatment and phytostabilization of the tailings. Six plot locations were selected and were collected for metals, acid/base accounting and soil fertility analyses. Based on the acid/base accounting data, geochemical amendments were added to neutralize the tailings and to bind toxic, soluble metals into insoluble forms. Upon pH stabilization, organic amendments were added and each plot was seeded with a mixture of cool and warm season native grasses. The test plots were monitored for one year. Soil and plant tissue samples were collected for laboratory analysis during the monitoring period. Data from the laboratory analysis indicated that the metals had been successfully immobilized, and that the acid generating potential and pH of the plots remained stabile.
