Journal ArticleDOI
Geochemical evolution of inactive pyritic tailings in the Elliot Lake uranium district
TL;DR: Geochemical data obtained between 1979 and 1983 from a network of piezometer nests and cores from three inactive uranium tailings impoundments in the Elliot Lake district indicate that oxidation of...
Journal ArticleDOI
Vertical cross contamination of trichloroethylene in a borehole in fractured sandstone.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that transfer of contaminant mass to the matrix by diffusion can cause severe cross contamination effects in sedimentary rocks, but these effects generally are not identified from information normally obtained in fractured-rock investigations, resulting in potential misinterpretation of site conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Migration of acidic groundwater seepage from uranium-tailings impoundments, 1. Field study and conceptual hydrogeochemical model
TL;DR: In this article, the results of a study at a non-operational tailings site are presented and are used to construct a general conceptual model for seepage migration from uranium-tailings impoundments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using earth-tide induced water pressure changes to measure in situ permeability: A comparison with long-term pumping tests
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the results of two conventional, long-term and large scale pumping tests performed at the same site to the results obtained from a tidal response, and concluded that the tidal analysis is able to capture passive and accurate estimates of permeability.
Journal ArticleDOI
The carbon isotope geochemistry of a small groundwater system in northeastern Ontario
Peter Fritz,Eric J. Reardon,J. Barker,R. M. Brown,John A. Cherry,R. W. D. Killey,D. McNaughton +6 more
TL;DR: The carbon isotopic composition (13C and 14C) of the inorganic carbon dissolved in the waters of a small, largely unconfined aquifer in unconsolidated sediments on the Canadian Shield has been investigated as mentioned in this paper.
