  • Management of Arsenic Trioxide Bearing Dust at Giant Mine, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories
    MANAGEMENT OF ARSENIC TRIOXIDE BEARING DUST AT GIANT MINE, YELLOWKNIFE, NORTHWEST TERRITORIES. Authors: N. Thompson, P. Spencer, P. Green Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development. P.O. Box 1500, Yellowknife, NT, X1A 2R3 Introduction The Giant Mine, located in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada has been operating as a gold mine since 1948. Giant has been primarily an underground operation which used roaster technology to remove of gold from refractory arsenopyrite ore. The roasting process produced arsenic trioxide bearing dust as a waste product. This dust was pneumatically conveyed into underground storage chambers at a rate of 10-13 tons per day at peak production. Fifty years of operation have resulted in approximately 265,000 tons of roaster dust stored in 15 underground chambers. When underground storage began in 1951, it was considered the best option at the time, based the occurrence of permafrost in the bedrock. The first chambers were purpose built for dust storage in areas thought to be dry and surrounded by permafrost. From the 1960’s through to the mid 1970’s dust was placed in mined out stopes rather than purpose built chambers, however, the stopes were still located in dry permafrost zones. In 1976 the mine once again began using purpose-built chambers to store the arsenic trioxide dust. These chambers were placed to utilize low permeability host rock rather than in permafrost for containment. As late as 1977, the Canadian Public Health Association recommended underground storage as the best option. The chambers are located in the zone that has been dewatered by mining activities (water table depression) but local flow does exist in the mine workings including the chamber areas.

  • 771 FULLOWKA V. PINKERTON's of CANADA LTD. and the MATERIAL-CONTRIBUTION TEST for FACTUAL CAUSATION in NEGLIGENCE on 18 Februa
    FULLOWKA V. PINKERTON’S OF CANADA LTD. 771 FULLOWKA V. PINKERTON’S OF CANADA LTD. AND THE MATERIAL-CONTRIBUTION TEST FOR FACTUAL CAUSATION IN NEGLIGENCE ROBIN HANSEN* On 18 February 2010 the Supreme Court of Canada released its judgment in Fullowka v. Pinkerton’s of Canada Ltd.1 In a unanimous decision, the Court canvassed issues including duty and standard of care, factual causation, and the vicarious liability of unions, focusing especially upon duty and standard of care. This case comment examines, in particular, the decision’s treatment of factual causation in negligence. I argue that while the reasoning on factual causation is brief, its implicit logic helps reveal the Court’s current intent regarding the substance of the material-contribution test for factual causation. This comment is divided into four parts. In Part I, I describe the case history and facts. In Part II, I outline the material-contribution test for factual causation in negligence and review recent appellant level decisions on the topic. In Part III, I examine the Court’s reasons on factual causation in Fullowka and their significance for this area of negligence law. Part IV serves as a brief conclusion. I. FACTS AND CASE HISTORY Fullowka arose out of events transpiring at the Giant Mine, located 5 km from Yellowknife. This gold mine was first operational in 1948 and was owned by various companies until Royal Oak Mines (Royal Oak) gained control in 1990.2 At 8:45 a.m. on 18 September 1992, a violent explosion killed nine miners on the 750-foot level of the mine.

  • Potential Impact on Mining
    Potential Impact on Mining KEN SUMANIK Introduction The potential impacts of Delgamuukw on the mining industry are conjec- tural: they depend ultimately on who owns the land and to what extent the owners and prospective users are able to agree on terms and condi- tions of use. In the interim, mineral tenure holders and mining develop- ers are expected to engage in “meaningful consultation” with aboriginal peoples as a pre-requisite to “work,” while the ownership questions are being argued in our courts. This uncertainty has increased the currently high levels of risk to exploration and development. Mining Is a Risky Business The study of risk measurement in the mining industry is made difficult by diverse influences. Some are technical, some human, and some po- litical—each study is unique. Between 1927 and 1967, Cominco ex- plored more than 1,000 properties in Canada. Of these, only 78 were of sufficient interest to warrant a major exploration program. Sixty were found to contain insufficient ore to justify production; 18 were brought into production, but of these, 11 were not sufficiently profitable to per- mit recovery of the original investment. Only seven of the original Notes will be found on page 465. 459 460 Beyond the Nass Valley 1,000 properties became profitable mines.1 During that 40-year period, the company spent more than $300 million in its search for new mines. Technical risks have now been overtaken by human and political risks. These commonly include security of mineral tenure, access to land, excessive regulations, taxation, mineral commodity prices, and energy and labour costs.
