Feasibility of Silver-Lead Mine Waste Manipulation for Mine Drainage Control
The purpose of the Feasibility Study Dry Fork of Belt Creek, Montana is to examine solutions and methods of abatement of acid mine drainage problems and recommend a solution. The Galena Creek area in the Dry Fork of Belt Creek drainage contains several old mine tailings piles from which acidic waters emerge. The acidic water has destroyed the aquatic life in Galena Creek and the Dry Fork of Belt Creek as well as ruined the overall aesthetic value of both creeks. Mine dump surface regrading and sealing are recommended as the method of reducing the acidic wastes entering Galena Creek. The top of Block P Mine dump should be sloped so as to allow proper drainage. The top should also be sealed with a bentonite seal, and top soil added to allow revegetation. The bypass pipeline around the Block P dump should be extended to prevent water in Galena Creek from creating seeps in the toe of the dump.
