Acid Rock Drainage Transfer System for The Gilt Edge Mine

Abstract

This presentation will be reviewing the engineering processes used to successfully design improvements to the pumping station in Hoodoo Gulch at the Gilt Edge mine. This new system will include a change in the current pumping system and a new pipeline. These changes will reroute the current discharge location from the Sunday Pit on site to the Stormwater pond where it can be stored before treatment. These changes will allow cleanup at the site to be continued according to the official Record of Decisions.
