GEOCHEMICAL AND MINERALOGICAL EVALUATION OF SLOVINKY TAILING IMPOUNDMENT MATERIAL (SLOVAKIA).
Abstract
This paper is focused on geochemical and mineralogical characterization of material from tailing impoundment in Slovinky (eastern Slovakia). This work should contribute to the implementation of European Parliament and European Commission directive 2006/21/ES on the management of waste from extractive industries. Samples were obtained by sampling of two drilling holes with depth 20 m, which were situated in the body of tailing impoundment. Determination of pH, Eh, conductivity, modification of 3- step sequence analyses, acidification and neutralization potential was used to obtain data for geochemical characterization of material. Results of sequence analyses were comprised with total chemical analyses to determined pot entially mobilis ed part of samples from tailing impoundment. Key words: tailing impoundment, mining waste, legislation, evaluation,
