It's the most extensive study on underwater tailing placement ever conducted. Over the course of 30 years, more than 400 million tons of tailing solids were deposited on the ocean floor with minimal environmental impact. The study evaluated the relevant issues associated with the implementation of a deep sea tailing placement program, including engineering, chemical, biological, and environmental considerations. 606 $aMineral industries$xWaste disposal$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aWaste disposal in the ocean 606 $aTailings (Metallurgy)$xEnvironmental aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMineral industries$xWaste disposal$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aWaste disposal in the ocean. 615 0$aTailings (Metallurgy)$xEnvironmental aspects. 676 $a622/.028/6 701 $aPoling$b George Wesley$0902648 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454667003321 996 $aUnderwater tailing placement at Island Copper Mine$92017833 997 $aUNINA
