초록

건설현장 절취사면 함황철석 암석시료의 X-선분말회절자료를 이용하여 매트릭스플러싱법(matrix-flushing method)과 ROCKJOCK 프로그램 두 가지 방법으로 구성광물을 정량분석하고 두 방법을 비교 평가하였다. 또한, 광물정량 분석결과를 이용하여 광물학적 중화능과 산발생능을 산출하여 전통적 방법으로 구한 산발생능과 비교함으로써 그 응용 가능성을 평가하였다. 광물학적 중화능과 산발생능을 좌우하는 물질인 방해석과 황철석에 대한 광물정량 분석결과, 두 방법 사이에는 약 0.95의 정의 상관관계를 보이고 있으나 매트릭스플러싱법으로 구한 값이 평균 약 1.45배 정도 크다. 총 황 분석값을 이용한 황철석 추정량과 XRD자료를 이용하여 정량적으로 계산된 황철석 함량 간의 관계는 KB 시료를 제외하였을 경우에 매트릭스플러싱법과 ROCKJOCK방법에서 각각 0.98과 0.92라는 높은 정의 상관관계를 보여주고 있으며 전통적인 acid-base accounting (ABA) 시험에서의 AP값에 대하여 이러한 상관관계가 그대로 반영된다. 방해석을 포함하는 유일한 시료인 YJ의 광물학적 NP는 매트릭스플러싱법과 ROCKJOCK 방법에 대하여 각각 23.0과 34.0(kg $CaCO_3$ equivalent per tonne)로 나타났다. 매트릭스플러싱법으로 산출된 AP값은 평균적으로 전통적인 산성배수 발생가능성 평가의 산발생능 값의 12%에 해당하며 ROCKJOCK 프로그램을 이용하여 산출된 산발생능 값의 47%에 해당한다. 따라서 황철석과 방해석 한 종에 대한 광물학적 AP와 NP 값의 산출만으로도 전통적인 산성배수 발생 가능성 평가 이전에 효율적인 예측이 가능함을 보여주었다. 자류철석(pyrrohtite), 백운석, 능철석, 앵커라이트, 능망간석 등의 기타 개별 광물에 대한 추가 연구를 통하여 실제 건설현장 절토사면 시료에 대한 광물학적 NP와 AP 계산의 완성도를 높일 수 있으며, 산성암반배수 발생가능성 평가의 예비 지표로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

We examined the mineralogical composition of pyrite-bearing rocks by quantitative powder X-ray diffraction analysis using the matrix-flushing method and ROCKJOCK (a full pattern fitting computer program). The neutralization potential (NP) and acid generating potential (AP) were calculated on the basis of mineralogical compositions. The mineralogical AP was compared with the conventional AP calculated from bulk sulfur concentration to assess the applicability to the prediction of acid rock drainage(ARD). The pyrite content calculated by matrix-flushing method showed a high positive correlation($r^2$=0.95) with those by ROCKJOCK. The pyrite contents by matrix-flushing method was 1.45 times larger than those by ROCKJOCK. The pyrite content and mineralogical AP obtained by the matrix-flushing method had a better correlation($r^2$=0.98) with those by the total sulfur concentrations in the all samples except KB sample. The mineralogical NPs of YJ sample were 23.0 and 34.0(kg $CaCO_3$ equivalent per tonne) by matrix-flushing method and ROCKJOCK, respectively. The AP calculated by matrix-flushing method and ROCKJOCK program were 47% and 72% of those by the conventional ABA test. We hereby suggested that the quantitative analysis using XRD data can be applied to prediction of ARD. For more reliable calculation of the mineralogical NP and AP, other sulfide and carbonate minerals such as pyrrhotite, dolomite, ankerite, siderite, rhodochrosite which can affact the mineralogical NP and AP should be considered.
