Samenvatting

This book offers a problem-and-solution approach to environmental remediation in mining, including the environmentally sustainable utilization of waste materials from the mining industry. It largely comprises articles published in Springer journals, which have been thoroughly revised and expanded. With supplementary data and illustrations, it discusses specific problem areas in relevant Caribbean locations and provides an overview of geotechnical and microbial solutions to prevent post-mining deterioration in this area.

Inhoudsopgave

Fragility &amp; bearing capacity of a gray shale in northeastern Jamaica on exposure by a landslip: implications for humid tropics.- Erodibility of unconsolidated mine wastes under simulated rainfall and water movements after sewage sludge and phyto-organic treatments.- Changing the hydraulic conductivity and aggregation in pyritic mine tailings materials with sludge and decomposable phyto-organics.- Aggregation of sodic subsoils using gypsum and decomposable phyto-organics: interactions and implications for bauxite red muds.- Post-mining nutrient depletion of bauxite overburdens in Jamaica: storage methods or mixing with subsoil?.- Structural&nbsp; amelioration of carbonated gypsum-treated bauxite red mud tailings using bacterially mediated organic treatments.- Management of a potential mine capping for reclamation of open-cut mines: responses to phyto-organic treatments.- Bioremediation of stagnant heavy metal-polluted acid mine drainage using a clay-lime spiked sludge and decomposable phyto-organics.</p>
