The project aims to develop new methods for identifying pollution source hotspots and pathways inside mine waste rock dumps. This addresses the national need for effective management of Acid and Metalliferous Drainage (AMD), which is now a critical consideration in the viability of new mines and in confronting pollution legacies of old mines. The research will develop and test innovative methods of geophysical and geochemical analysis and their integration that provide 3-dimensional mapping of key physical and chemical features of the dump. Expected outcomes include greater confidence in the ability of the mining industry to manage its AMD liability.

该项目旨在开发新的方法来识别矿山废岩垃圾场中的污染源热点和途径。这解决了国家对有效管理酸和金属排水（AMD）的需求，这现在是新矿山生存能力以及面对旧矿山污染遗产的关键考虑。该研究将开发和测试地球物理和地球化学分析的创新方法及其整合，这些方法可提供转储的关键物理和化学特征的3维映射。预期的结果包括对采矿业管理其AMD责任的能力的更大信心。
