  • Design & Performance Monitoring (Kennecott Ridgeway Mine Tailings
    HYDRAULIC PLACEMENT OF A DRY COVER SYSTEM - DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE MONITORING OF THE KENNECOTT RIDGEWAY MINE TAILINGS DAM COVER SYSTEM1 R. Duckett2 and M. O’Kane3 Abstract. The Kennecott Ridgeway Mining Company (KRMC) tailings facility was built using run of mine waste and downstream embankment construction techniques. Approximately 60% of the 60 million tons of processed tailings have a negative net neutralization potential. KRMC conducted a cost-benefit analysis supported by a detailed cover system design and determined that a hydraulically placed cover system was the preferred closure option for the tailings facility. The tailings mass (124 ha, or 307 acres) was covered with 2.7 million tons of clay material (saprolite) using hydraulic placement from both centre-point and ring discharge points following cessation of operations in November 1999. Approximately 90% of the tailings surface area is now covered with greater than 90 cm (36 inches) of cover material. Monitoring was initiated in September 2001 to evaluate the field performance of the tailings dam cover system. Three primary tailings monitoring sites were established to provide continuous measurements of in situ suction, moisture content, and temperature conditions. Sixteen secondary tailings monitoring sites were also installed. The secondary monitoring sites provide spatial coverage to evaluate cover system performance. Surface runoff across the cover surface during precipitation events is also monitored. This paper summarizes the design and implementation of the hydraulically placed KRMC tailings dam cover system. The cost benefit of implementing this novel cover placement technique is discussed. The field performance monitoring system is described and field data is discussed and summarized in light of the cover system design objectives for minimizing oxygen ingress.

  • Ophir District, Randolph and Montgomery Counties, North Carolina: Geologic and Metallogenic Analysis
    Ophir District, Randolph and Montgomery Counties, North Carolina: Geologic and metallogenic analysis By Robert J. Moye North Carolina Geological Survey Open-File Report 2018-15 November 9, 2018 Suggested citation: Moye, Robert J., 2018, Ophir District, Randolph and Montgomery Counties, North Carolina: Geologic and metallogenic analysis: North Carolina Geological Survey, Open-File Report 2018-15, 73p. Foreword Introduction and statement of purpose This report is one of a series of four North Carolina Geological Survey open-file reports and North Carolina Geological Survey, Special Publication 11, prepared in cooperation with the North Carolina Geological Survey, that provide a geologic and metallogenic review and analysis of several groups and associations of historic gold mines in the Carolina Terrane in central North Carolina. Although representing diverse styles of mineralization, the gold deposits reviewed in these reports all appear to represent a broad spectrum of orogenic gold deposits within the classification of Grooves et al. (1998). This includes classic low-sulfidation mesozonal orogenic narrow-vein lode gold deposits, represent by mines of the Gold Hill District (Gold Hill-type) and similar deposits along the Gold Hill Fault Zone (Moye, 2016); a newly recognized style of large- tonnage, low-grade mesozonal orogenic deposits with disseminated and stockwork vein mineralization (Sawyer Type); and a possibly unique occurrence of epizonal orogenic mineralization with bonanza-grade Au-Ag-Te mineralization. Deposit analysis indicates that, although geographically widespread and hosted by rocks with a wide range of ages, these various styles of orogenic gold deposits all formed during the Cherokee Orogeny in the late Ordovician to early Silurian (Hibbard et al., 2012).

AYUSO, AND ROBERT SEAL, II U.S. Geological Survey, Mail Stop 954, National Center, Reston, Virginia 20192 Abstract Auriferous iron sulfide-bearing deposits of the Carolina slate belt have distinctive mineralogical and textural features—traits that provide a basis to construct models of ore deposition. Our identification of paragenetically early types of pyrite, especially remnant colloform, crustiform, and layered growth textures of pyrite contain- ing electrum and pyrrhotite, establishes unequivocally that gold mineralization was coeval with deposition of host rocks and not solely related to Paleozoic tectonic events.
