The Mining Environment Research Group is a cooperative working group made up of government agencies, mining companies, Yukon First Nations and non-government organizations for the promotion of research into mining and environmental issues in the Yukon. Participants bring their resources and knowledge to work cooperatively on mining environmental issues and projects. For example, a mining company may have research commitments for the environmental assessment and water licensing stages of mine development. Members of MERG would identify those projects planned by the company which could have general application across the Yukon by the addition of extra funding or by broadening the scope of the work.

8. Idaho Mining Association : Mining Environmental Issues Idaho Mining And The Environment. Mining s concern for the environment beginswith exploration. Concern for the environment doesn t stop at the mine site. http://www.idahomining.org/environment.html

Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) Program Idaho Mining And The Environment Mining's concern for the environment begins with exploration. Using their knowledge of the Earth's formation and state-of-the-art Idaho Geological Survey Maps, modern-day prospectors can concentrate their exploratory efforts at precise locations. The rock captured in the center of a drill, called a core sample, is examined by geologists for signs of mineralization. In Idaho, these exploratory projects are often restricted by weather and cost; an average of a quarter-million dollars apiece. Land disturbed by exploration activity is reclaimed, whether or not minerals are found. Before a single shovel of dirt is moved, a variety of environmental and engineering studies must be conducted. It may take two to five years and millions of dollars to complete this second phase. Mining is heavily regulated by both the state and federal governments. An Environmental Impact Statement is required along with state and federal permits and a period of time set aside for public comment. Today, mining companies must develop a long-term plan which includes not only the mining process, but a program to rehabilitate the land once the mining stops. The life of a mine may vary from several years to over a hundred years, depending on the size of the ore body and the market for the mineral it produces. Before, during and after this mine life cycle, great care is taken to protect the environment. Today, a large amount of the money generated from mining is being put back into the ground.

TRI Explained Metal Mining and Right-To-Know/TRI Program By July 1, 1999, the U. S. metals mining industry will be reporting natural occurring minerals that are not recovered during the processing of mined rock. In addition to these minerals, the industry will be reporting other materials used in producing useful metals. The data will be provided to the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), state and local agencies, and the public. This information is being reported under the Community Right-to-Know Act (also known as Toxics Release Inventory or TRI). The mining industry supports the intent of the Right-to-Know Act and wants you to understand what these reports mean. Currently, mines are compiling all of the necessary information for their TRI reports, covering the prior calendar year. The reported numbers are based on volume and in no way equate to health or environmental risk. More than 99 percent of the reported volume will be substances managed on land and less than one percent are emissions to air and water. At most mines, more than 99 percent of the reported volume will be naturally occurring trace metals contained as minerals in rock. These substances are managed properly and stored in specially engineered containment facilities at mine sites. It is important to understand that even though the concentrations in the rock are very low, the sheer volume of material will make mining operations some of the highest-ranking TRI reporting facilities in the state.

Sunday, 6 June 2004 Website Overview Search for: Printer-friendly version Environmental Impacts Last update: June 11, 2002 Modern mining methods have left the West pockmarked by huge craters and poisoned more than 16,000 miles of Western streams. Tens of thousands of abandoned mines continue to emit an orange-red, acid- laced runoff called "yellow boy." (Source: Seattle Post-Intelligencer Mineral-bearing ore is often high in sulfides and water passing through the rock and soil creates sulfuric acid, which in turn leaches poisonous heavy metals into runoff water, with iron in the rock turning streams an orange-red. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2000 Toxics Release Inventory, the metal mining industry released 3.3 billion pounds of toxic waste into the environment in 2000, or 47 percent of toxics released by all U.S. industries combined that year. Click here for a breakdown of toxics released into the environment in 2000 by the metal mining industry. EPA estimates that 40 percent of Western watersheds are affected by mining pollution. EPA officials have at times advised against allowing a mine to open, but the EPA's concerns are sometimes ignored since the ultimate go- ahead comes from the Forest Service or the Bureau of Land Management.

Mining Environment Database Description The Mining Environment Database provides references and abstracts to over 20,000 journal articles, books, and government reports dealing with abandoned mines, acid mine drainage and land reclamation. Topics include reclamation planning, design and costs; tailings, heavy metals; disposal of hazardous wastes, including acid mine drainage, sulphide-based tailings and asbestos particles; chemical reactivity and oxidation affecting pyrite and pyrrhotite tailings; leaching; radioactive hazards of uranium tailings soil and water contamination; soil stabilization; liming; fertilizers; seeding techniques; mine closure techniques; and other related topics. Subject coverage focuses on hard rock mining topics and is international in scope. Coverage No dates are given for the Mining Environment Database , however it appears that coverage begins in the 1980's with some prior material.

Mining environment With the world population crossing the six billion mark, our prime concern has shifted to carrying out developmental activities with minimal impact to the environment. Mining activity is one developmental activity which goes hand-in-hand with environmental degradation. However, it would be wrong and practically impossible to put an end to the mining industry in the same of environmental concern. The whole idea is more realistic when mining activities are carried out along with reclamation activities so that after the area in mined out it returns as close as possible to its original land cover and local environment. Remote sensing provides an excellent tool to study the mining areas and to monitor the impacts of mining in a short and long term. The environmental effects of mining on all the three environmental amenities viz, land, water and air can be separately monitored. The following photograph/images show The environment in a typical mining area Large overburden dumps changing land cover type Dumps and informal settlements as seen on remote sensing images Air pollution in a mining area Air pollution as seen from remote sensing images Water pollution as seen from remote sensing images Unplanned urban fringe expansions in the mining areas Anupma Prakash URL: http://www.gi.alaska.edu/~prakash/research/mining environment.html
