  • 광산 배수시스템을 설계하기 위해서는 채굴적이나 갱도 내로 유입되는 지하수량을 평가하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 가곡광산 선곡구에 개설된 갱도 주변 암반에서의 지하수 유동을 평가하기 위해서 정상류해석을 실시하였다. 암반의 포화 특성 모델로는 포화모델과 포화/불포화모델을 사용하였다. 길이가 1216 m인 선곡 160갱내로 유입되는 지하수량은 포화모델을 사용한 경우 1450 $m^3$/day, 포화/불포화모델을 적용한 경우 1071 $m^3$/day로 나타났다. 투수계수가 갱도 내 유입량 변화에 미치는 영향이 강수량 보다 큰 것으로 나타났고 투수계수를 증가시키는 경우 유입량도 선형적으로 증가하였다. 또한 투수계비와 투수계수 방향의 변화도 유입량과 지하수위에 영향을 미치는 것으로 평가되었다.

  • This study was conducted to describe the characteristics of Non-point source (NPS) Pollution discharge from a coal mining area in Korea. The study areas is located on the Dogye site, Samchuk, Kangwon Province Coal Corporation and the Jangsung site, Taebaek, Kangwon Province Coal Corporation. The monitoring system was installed at a drainage channel and water samples and rainfall events were collected during March 2008 to February 2009. The collected water samples were analyzed with respect to SS, BOD, $COD_{Cr}$, $COD_{Mn}$, T-N, T-P, and TOC, respectively. It was observed that the runoff and water quality were largely influenced by mine drainage. Also a significant relationship was observed from the correlation between flow and water quality, flow and NPS. And estimated Event Mean Concentration (EMC), NPS pollution loads were Dogey coal mine and Taeback coal mine respectively. As the study progresses in the future, runoff and pollution loads will be updated.

  • 복구되지 않은 폐광산 광미에 의한 산성광산매수가 문제를 일으킬수 있는 기간에 대하여 column 실험에 의한 모델링을 통하여 규명하였고, 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 석회석을 이용한 경제적이고도 환경 친화적인 기술을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 원천적으로 중금속이 침출 수나 유입 수에 미 반응하여 영구히 안정상태를 유지하는 것인데, 석회석을 주 혼화재로 하여 석회석과 광미를 교차로 적층하는 복구기술이다. 이렇게 석회석으로 복구하면 국내에 대량으로 부존되어 있는 거 품위 석회석 자원을 활용할 수 있어 경제적일 뿐만 아니라 환경 친화적이다.

  • 폐광 부지에서 발생하는 대표적인 환경 문제는 산성으로 오염된 지표수와 지하수, 적재된 폐광석 및 광미, 채굴 활동으로 야기된 지반침하 현상을 들 수 있다. 이 논문은 광해 유형에 따라 재해 및 오염영역을 효율적으로 탐지했던 지구물리탐사방법들을 고찰하는데 있다. 시험 자료로서 토양오염, 산성광산배수, 지반침하, 인공차수막 파손 및 광미/폐광석 적치장을 각각 대표하는 네 개의 폐광 부지를 선택하였다. 자료 검증을 위해 물리탐사자료는 자료의 유형에 따라 시추자료(코어 샘플, 물리검층, 토모그래피 등)와 물 자료(수소이온농도, 전기전도도, 중금속원소 등)와 비교하였다. 토양오염 탐지에 있어서 낮은 전기비저항 이상대는 특히 구리, 납, 아연의 중금속 농도가 높은 지역과 부합된다. 산성광산배수의 유동 경로는 자연전위 곡선에서 음의 전위 이상대, 전기비저항자료에서의 저비저항 이상대, 지하레이더 자료에서의 얕은 투과깊이 영역으로 탐지되었다. 채굴적은 전기비저항 단면에서의 저비저항 이상대, 탄성파토모그래피에서 낮은 속도 영역, 물리검층곡선의 복합해석으로 특징되며, 정확한 위치는 코어자료와 시추공영상자료에서 잘 확인되었다. 침출수 유동을 차단하기 위해 설치된 인공차수막의 파손 구간은 전기비저항 자료에서의 국부적인 이상대로 정확히 탐지되며 매립된 폐석더미는 고비저항 이상대와 저속도 이상대로 특징된다.

  • This paper presents the geophysical applications to the environmenml problem in an abandoned mine area. We would like to focus our attention on the mapping of the soil contamination and the detection of the buried mine tailings. For mapping the soil contamination. measurements of both in-situ magnetic susceptibility (k) and terrain conductivity were carried out. In-situ magnetic susceptibilities of the contaminated soil due to the acid mine drainage show higher values than those of the uncontaminated area. However. those data do not show the correlation with the degree of the soil contamination observed on the surface. The least-squares fitted formula obtained with the measured insitu magnetic susceptibilities is $k=4.8207{\times}W^{0.6332}$, where W is the $Fe^{+2}$ weight percentage. This weight gives most effect to magnetic susceptibility of the soil. Lateral variations of the soil contamination in the shallow subsurface can be detected by the electrical conductivity distributions from EM induction survey. TDIP (Time Domain Induced Polarization) and EM induction surveys were conducted to detect the buried mine tailings. From the results of TDIP, the spatial zone, which shows high chargeability-low resistivity, is interpreted as the buried mine tailings. Therefore, it is concluded that it is possible to discriminate the spatial zone from the uncontaminated ground.

  • In this study, we examined the influences of pH and total concentration on the speciation of heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Zn) in acid mine drainage. Their labile concentrations were analyzed by Anodic Stripping Voltammetry (ASV) at both natural pH and adjusted pHs (from 2 to 8). We obtained regression equations for predicting labile concentrations as a function of the water pH and contamination level (total dissolved metal concentration). Our data show that labile Cu depends on both the total concentration and pH, while labile Cd and Zn concentrations are controlled mainly by their total concentration rather than pH. Therefore, the pH variation of AMD may significantly change the toxicity and bioavailability especially of Cu, owing to its speciation change.

  • The characteristics of floc formation of the iron(Fe) ions was studied for developing the process treating the acid mine drainage. The metal ions in aqueous solution oxidized with oxygen in air, which generated hydrogen ion and lowered the pH of the aqueous solution. The iron(Fe) ions were formed into flocs by the acid-base reaction with the added $Ca(OH)_2$ for the neutralizing the solution. There were several variables affecting the formation, size and color of floc; whether air was present or not, air feeding rate, oxidizing time, concentration of $Ca(OH)_2$, the acid-base reaction time of the $iron(Fe)-Ca(OH)_2$. For proper formation of the $iron(Fe)-Ca(OH)_2$ flocs and developing the floc treating system, the control variables mentioned above should be considered.

  • The objective of this study was to invetigate the coagulation effects of landfill leachate by using Acid Mine Drainage(AND). The coagulation efficiency was investigated by mixing landfill leachate with F $e^{+3}$ solution earned by oxidation of pyrite(AMD). In the results of this experiment, it was found that the amount of removed COD and SS was approximately 30% respectively by mixing at the ratio of AMD three to leachate one. And it showed highest turbidity removal efficiency at all mixing ratio. Concentration of Fe was decreased with increasing mixing ratio, however it was increased inversely at mixing ratio 4. Optimal mixing ratio was 3 at the results obtained by leachate coagulation experiments. Also removal efficiency at mixing ratio 3 corresponded to 500mg/$\ell$ of FeC $l_3$ dosage. it was suggested that pretreatment by mixing of AMD and leachate remove both suspended organic material of leachate and metal of AMD.

  • Heavy metal equilibria in the Dongnam stream which receives the wastewater from mining activities are investigated to provide some basic data for the management of small stream with acid mine drainage. Saturation, undersaturation, and supersaturation of some heavy metal ions with respect to some mineral phases are evaluated by saturation index (logIAP/Ksp). The $Al^{3+}$ activities showed equilibrium with $AIOHSO_4$ solid phase below a pH of 6.0. The $Fe^{3+}$ activities appeared to be controlled by Fe $(OH)_{3(amorphous)}$ solid phase below a pH of 4.0. $Zn^{2+}$ activities appeared to be regulated by $ZnCO_3$ solid phase above a pH of 6.8. Some heavy metal activities appeared to be depended upon the pH.

  • This study investigated the geochemical characteristics of mine drainage discharged from an abandoned coal mine in the Hwasoon area. Surface water samples were collected from 23 locations along the Hancheon creek. The concentration of Zn and Cu in stream waters was highest at low pH (3.53), whereas the content of TDS and TDI was highest at high pH (7.78) due to the concentration of Ca, $HCO_3$ and $SO_4$. At the upstream site, the Ba, Fe, Mn, Zn, and $SO_4$ contents were relatively high but decreased significantly with the distance from the coal mine. On the contrary, the Na and $NO_3$ contents were low at the upstream site but increased downstream. Yellow precipitate material collected in the Hancheon consisted mainly of iron and LOI. This yellow precipitate was heated from 100 to $900^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. With increasing temperature, the intensity of hematite peaks were sharply produced in X-ray pattern and the absorption band Fe-O of hematite increased in IR due to dehydration and melting. The yellow to brown precipitate and evaporite materials were collected by a air-dry from the acid mine water at the laboratory. After drying, the concentration of ions in the acid water samples increased progressively in oversaturation with respect to either gypsum, ferrohexahydrite or quenstedetite. The X-ray powder diffraction studies identified that the precipitated and evaporated materials after drying were well crystallized gypsum, ferrohexahydrite and quenstedetite. Diagnostic peaks used for identification of gypsum were the 7.65, 4.28, 3.03, 2.87 and 2.48$\AA$ peaks and those for ferrohexahydrite were the 5.46, 5.12, 4.89, 4.44, 4.05, 3.62, 3.46, 3.40, 3.20, 3.03, 2.94, 2.53, 2.28, 2.07, 1.88 and 1.86${\AA} peaks. The IR spectra with OH-stretching, deformation of $H_2O$and ${SO_4}^{2-}$stretching vibration include the existence of gypsum, ferrohexahydrite and quenstedetite in the precipitated and evaporite materials. In the SEM and EDS analysis for the evaporite material, gypsum with well-crystallized, acicular, and columnar form was distinctly observed.
