The proposed project includes a four year construction period and a 26 year post-closure period. A key component of the Casino Project is the upgrade and extension to the existing Freegold road, jointly called the Casino Mine Access Road. The Freegold Road is an existing 80 km long gravel resource road owned and operated by the Yukon Government. Casino Mining Corporation (CMC) proposes to upgrade the existing Freegold Road, including the addition of a bypass road around the town of Carmacks, and extend the road a further 120 km to the Casino Mine Site. Both the upgrade and the extension would be two-lane, gravel resource roads designed for all weather use by haul trucks with highway legal loads. The roads will be designed to BC Ministry of Forest guidelines, with a 70 km/hr design speed, with some short 50 km/hr sections where road geometry is limited by the terrain. The road will be 8.2 m wide with maximum grades of 8%. The Casino Project will require the transportation of various materials for operation and construction of the mine, including up to eleven tanker trucks per day for LNG transportation from Fort Nelson. Additionally, the milling processes will require shipment of reagents, including cyanide based reagents for the leaching of gold in the heap leach facility. This Spill Contingency Management Plan (SCMP) is a preliminary plan to outline the precautions and spill response procedures for the proposed Casino Project. The SCMP will be updated as the project is refined, and has been derived from guidance in the Plan Requirements Guidance for Quartz Mining Projects (Government of Yukon, 2013), Guidelines for Preparing Contingency Plans for Carriers of Hazardous Waste (Ministry of Environment, 2011), and from the Land Transportation Emergency Response Guideline for Petroleum Spills (Canadian Petroleum Products Institute, 2008). The SCMP contains information on the identification of the potential spills that may occur at the Casino Mine, and outlines spill response procedures for specific types of spills.

    Solutions to Exercises Note: There may be more than one correct path to a correct answer. Chapter 1. Problem Solving 1. If your answer doesn’tagree with the published answer,possibilities include a) your answer may be incorrect, b) the published answer may be incorrect, c) both may be incorrect, d) both may be correct (i.e. there may be more than one correct answer), e) typographical error (answer out of place). 2. Terminology: chemistry is a noun (object), but could refer to an object of study or prac- tice, etc. As an object of study,chemistry could refer to what is expected to be known by a novice, all that is known, all that may be known, etc; as a practice, chemistry could refer to practical applications, theoretical principles, processes where substances change called chemical reactions, etc. The word reasonable might connote logic, understand- ing, ethical practice, demand, etc. One might logically conclude that the subject of chemistry should be understandable, or that the field of chemistry should be non-productive (if it is reasonable to assume that chemistry is harmful to the environment, say), etc. This example is not meant to be totally trivial. Communication involves common under- standing of terminology,construction (syntax) and meaning (semantics). Forexample, the word "add" may mean different things depending on the context; e.g. calculators (add twointegers), travelagents (add the mileage, add a flight, total the cost). Clear definitions and logical thinking are essential to science. 3. There seems to be an implicit assumption that Alice wants to go somewhere.

  • The Energy Landscape Concept and Its Implications for Synthesis Planning
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2014; 86(6): 883–898 Conference paper Martin Jansen* The energy landscape concept and its implications for synthesis planning Abstract: Synthesis of novel solids, in a chemical sense, is one of the spearheads of innovation in materials research. However, such an undertaking is substantially impaired by lack of control and predictability. We present a concept that points the way towards rational planning of syntheses in solid state and materials chemistry. The foundation of our approach is the representation of the whole material world, i.e., the known and not-yet-known chemical compounds, on an energy landscape, which implies information about the free energies of these configurations. From this it follows at once that all chemical compounds capable of existence (both thermodynamically stable and metastable ones) are already present in virtuo in this landscape. For the first step of synthesis planning, i.e., the identification of candidates that are capable of existence, we computa- tionally search the respective potential energy landscapes for (meta)stable structure candidates. Recently we have extended our techniques to finite temperatures and pressures and calculated phase diagrams, including metastable manifestations of matter, without resorting to any experimental pre-information. The conception developed is physically consistent, and its feasibility has been proven. Applying appropriate experimental tools has enabled us to realize, e.g., elusive Na3N, including almost all of its predicted polymorphs, many years after the predictions were published. Keywords: calculation of phase diagrams; global searches; inorganic materials synthesis; IUPAC Congress-44; local ergodicity; solid state chemistry; structure prediction; synthesis from atoms. DOI 10.1515/pac-2014-0212 Introduction The lines of action called “analysis” and “synthesis” continue to constitute the foundation of chemistry, providing it with genuine and distinct characteristics in a time of increasing overlap among the various dis- ciplines of natural sciences.

Favorsky Irkutsk Institute of Chemistry, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 1 Favorsky Street, 664033 Irkutsk, Russia; [email protected] (L.V.Z.); [email protected] (N.O.Y.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The review is devoted to modern trends in the chemistry of 2-amino and 2-mercapto substituted benzothiazoles covering the literature since 2015. The reviewed heterocycles belong to biologically active and industrially demanded compounds. Newly developed synthesis methods can be divided into conventional multistep processes and one-pot, atom economy procedures, realized using green chemistry principles and simple reagents. The easy functionalization of the 2-NH2 and 2-SH groups and the benzene ring of the benzothiazole moiety allows considering them as highly reactive building blocks for organic and organoelement synthesis, including the synthesis of pharmacologically active heterocycles. The review provides a summary of findings, which may be useful for developing new drugs and materials and new synthetic approaches and patterns of reactivity.
