EFFECT of LIME on STABILIZATION of MINING WASTE from SABAH, MALAYSIA Baba Bin Musta , Khairul Anuar Bin Kassim , Prasannan Pilla
Malaysian Journal of Civil Engineering 22(2) :202-216 (2010) EFFECT OF LIME ON STABILIZATION OF MINING WASTE FROM SABAH, MALAYSIA Baba bin Musta1, Khairul Anuar bin Kassim2, Prasannan Pillai Rajeev Kumar3* 1School of Science and TechnologyUniversity Malaysia Sabah, 88400, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia 2, 3 Department of Geotechnics & Transportation Faculty of Civil Engineering University Teknologi Malaysia 81310 Skudai, Johor, Malaysia *Corresponding Author: [email protected] _______________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT: This paper deals with the effect of lime on stabilization of mining waste from Sabah, Malaysia. In this study, different percentages of lime as well as fine material were added as additive with the mining waste. The engineering properties were measured by compaction test, unconfined compressive strength tests and permeability tests. The mineral identification and microstructure were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM). The compaction test indicated that the optimum moisture content varied with amount of lime content. The virgin mining waste showed low unconfined compressive strength value due to the very low cementing agent. The samples showed a rapid increase in shear strength when stabilized with lime content ranging from 2 to 8%. The rate of increase in strength is most rapid within two weeks of interaction. This is due to the pozzolanic reaction, which created more rigid - packed structure and small pore space at lime content as low as 2%. More addition of lime had increased the unconfined compressive strength due to the intensive pozzolanic reactions forming more cementitious mineral and created bridge-like structure. However the optimum percentage of lime required was 6% based on the unconfined compressive strength. -

INTRODUCTION This paper concentrates mainly on how Malaysia, a country composed of many races and religions, creates and enforces its laws in order to sustain the peace that has lasted more than half a century. I have recently retired as a judge, so my view on this subject is from a judge’s perspective. Malaysia is located just north of the equator, about halfway around the world from Utah. It is geographically divided into two main regions by the South China Sea. These two regions are the Peninsula Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak. Peninsula Malaysia was known as Malaya, but in 1963, the British colonies -
Chapter 1 Introduction
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Study Tin mining is one of the oldest industries in Malaysia. As what had been researched by James R.Lee (2000), the tin mining started since 1820s in Malaysia after the arrival of Chinese immigrants. The Chinese immigrants settled in Perak and started tin mines. Their leader was the famous Chung Ah Qwee. Their arrival contributed to the needed labour and hence the growth of the tin mining industry. Tin was the major pillars of the Malaysian economy. Tin occurs chiefly as alluvial deposits in the foothills of the Peninsular on the western site. The most important area is the Kinta Valley, which includes the towns of Ipoh, Gopeng, Kampar and Batu Gajah in the state of Perak. But that was long ago before price of tin had fallen greatly and high cost of mining had shutdown the industry. What is left now is the abandoned mine site scattered all over Perak. Some mines are far from populated area and some are in the population itself such as Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP). The campus is located on land that was once an active tin mining site. The residual of past activities can be seen where number of mining ponds can be found scattered in the vicinity of UTP. The main concern from geologist and nature agencies are the identification of Potentially Toxic Elements (PTEs) and the level of concentration for each element found in the area. Until now, there are only a few numbers of studies in Malaysia that has been done on data collection of PTEs and elevated content of PTEs in former mine. -

It represents an intensive study, interrupted by World Wars I and II and now since my retirement from the Army, it has been full time. In my first book there were three points of dispair, all of which have now been resolved. (I) The name of the vessel in which Andrew Hannay came to America. (2) Locating the de scendants of the first son James and (3) The names of Andrew's forbears. It contained a record of Andrew Hannay and his de scendants, and information on the various branches in Scotland as found in the publications of the "Scottish Records Society", "Whose Who", "Burk's" and other authorities such as could be located in various libraries. Also brief records of several families of the name that we could not at that time identify. Since then there have been published two books on the family. -
