Geochemical Characterization of Cleaner and Scavenger Tailings
This technical memorandum presents the results from the static geochemical characterization program of cleaner and scavenger tailings for the Resolution Copper Project conducted by Golder Associates (Golder). The program was carried out to evaluate the environmental stability of the tailings in support of identification, evaluation, and design of tailings management measures required to ensure protection of the environment. The focus of the program was on the potential for generation of acid rock drainage (ARD) and metal leaching (ML).
