Apr 15, 2016· Contemporary tailings dam spills often affect river basins that have a legacy of historical contamination. On 25 April 1998, the Aznalcollar spill released ~4 to 5 million m3 of liquid and tailings bearing arsenic, copper, lead, and zinc to the Río Guadiamar in southwestern Spain ([ 1 ][2]).

Tailings dams rank among the largest engineered structures on earth. The Syncrude Mildred Lake Tailings Dyke in Alberta, Canada, is an embankment dam about 18 kilometres (11 mi) long and from 40 to 88 metres (131 to 289 ft) is the largest dam structure on earth by volume, and as of 2001 it was believed to be the largest earth structure in the world by volume of fill.

The pulverized waste rock—known as tailings—is loaded into waterfilled retention basins, where it eventually settles to the bottom and reenters the rock cycle. The Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8 captured this image of iron mines in northern Michigan on September 11, 2013. Although the mined areas look like one facility from a ...

Copper and iron are essential elements for cellular growth. Although bacteria have to overcome limitations of these metals by affine and selective uptake, excessive amounts of both metals are toxic for the cells. Here we investigated the influences of copper stress on iron homeostasis in Bacillus subtilis, and we present evidence that copper excess leads to imbalances of intracellular iron ...

Disposal of tailings in the Bor Flotation Plant from 1933 to 1987 was done in the valley of the Bor River. According to data [2], around 27x106 t of tailings was deposited in the tailing dump with the average copper content of about %, which means that this waste material contains about 54,000 t of copper.
