Evaluation of Mill Tailings Disposal Practices and Potential Dam Stability Problems in Southwestern United States. Investigation Report. Phelps Dodge Corporation Morenci Tailings Dams Morenci, Arizona
Volume 2 presents the results of studies of Phelps Dodge Corporation's tailings embankments numbers at Morenci, Ariz. The work involved compilation and description of pertinent factors relating to the physical features and operational characteristics of the facility, including information on embankment construction practices; investigation and research of the general geologic and seismicity characteristics of the site and vicinity; limited field exploration and materials sampling and testing at the site; installation and limited monitoring of piezometers, surface movement markers, and slope indicator casing; limited laboratory testing of materials to evaluate the basic index and engineering properties of the embankment and tailings materials; selected engineering analyses of the embankment for various types of potential 'failure' conditions; and includes appendices.
