생산이 완료된 노천광산 채굴적을 광미(광물찌꺼기) 적치 장소로 활용하는 방안은 기존 광미 적치 시설(TSF, Tailing storage facility)의 설치 공간 및 운영비용 문제 해결을 위한 대안으로 제시된다. 하지만 장기간에 걸쳐 적치된 광미는 주변 암반에 추가적인 하중으로 작용하여 광산의 역학적 안정성을 저해할 위험성이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 호주 Marymia 광산의 사례를 참고하여 약 60,400 시간에 걸친 광미 적치 시나리오를 구축하였으며, 다양한 지하 채광장 형태 및 암반 조건에 따른 천반 수평필러의 역학적 안정성을 Sigma/W 해석 소프트웨어를 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 광미 적치가 장기간 지속됨에 따라 천반 수평필러의 파괴 가능성이 유의미하게 증가함을 확인하였다. 해당 결과는 노천채굴적 내 광미 적치 시 광산 구조에 대한 역학적 안정성 고려가 필수적임을 시사한다.

전남 해남에 위치한 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$광산의 광물찌꺼기를 이용하여 그라우트 재료로서의 활용 가능성을 평가하였다. 광물찌꺼기의 광물학적 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 XRD 분석을 실시하였다. 또한 광물찌꺼기와 시멘트를 3가지 비율로 혼합한 그라우트 재료의 물리적 및 역학적 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 양생기간에 따른 흐름도, 탄성파속도, 일축압축강도 시험을 각각 실시하였다. XRD 분석 결과에 의하면 본 광산의 광물찌꺼기는 대부분 석영, 방연석, 황철석 등의 광물들로 구성된 것으로 나타났다. 흐름시험 결과는 광물찌꺼기의 혼합비율이 높아질수록 흐름도가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 탄성파속도는 흐름도와 마찬가지로 양생기간에 관계없이 광물찌꺼기의 혼합비율이 높아질수록 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 일축압축강도 및 탄성계수 또한 양생기간에 관계없이 광물찌꺼기 혼합비율이 증가할수록 작아지는 경향을 보였다. 광물찌꺼기를 혼합한 그라우트 주입재의 물리적 및 역학적 특성만을 고려할 때 이들 결괏값은 그라우트 재료로서 충분히 활용 가능성을 가지고 있다고 판단된다. 하지만 광물찌꺼기내에 방연석과 황철석 등 금속광물이 포함되어 있어 지반 내 주입 시 환경오염을 일으킬 수 있으므로 향후 이에 대한 대책방안이 고려되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

This study investigates the fractional composition and the leaching characteristics of heavy metals in polluted soils due to mining activities. The fractionated composition of heavy metals is classified into five fractions, adsorbed, carbonate, reducible, organic and residual fraction. The status of humic substances in mine wastes of most sites are polyhumic except tailing from Sangdong mine. According to the sequential extraction procedures (SEPs), leaching probabilities of Cd in coal wastes and tailing are relatively low due to high percentage of residual fraction. 46.4% of Ni in tailings from Sangdong mine is probably leached under oxidized environment, and 39.4% of Cu in these tailings is readily extracted under strongly oxidized environment by organic fraction. According to leaching condition of pH 3.0 and pH 5.6, the amount of heavy metals leached out of coal wastes and tailing increases to 1/2 hours. At pH 3.0 and pH 5.6, concentration of Ni in tailing increases up three times of the initial value. Heavy metals released from coal wastes and tailing were not influenced significantly by leaching time.

The Shiheung mine was closed in 1972 and has been abandoned since then. Although some restoration work has been done, there still remain mine failings in and around the mine, posing a potential environmental hazard. Mine tailings and the porewater extracted from the tailing were investigated to see any evidence of elemental release and migration to adjacent groundwater and soil in the field. The pHs of the tailing range from 6.24 to 7.23. Calcite in the studied area seems to influence on such neutral pH range. Depth profile of mine tailing demonstrate elements have been leached and removed as a consequence of weathering during disposal. This is also supported by the findings from porewater analysis, corresponding the trends in the mine tailings. The concentrations of Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn in the tailing porewater exceed the standard value of EPA for drinking water and this implies groundwater can be contaminated through infiltration of the porewaters, which ultimately will be discharged as leachate from the mine tailing. Groundwater samples collected near the mine area do not show high metal concentrations, except for Fe, which were detected over drinking water standard.

Several mines including Namil, Solim and Jungbong which are located in the Gyeonggi and Kangwon province have been abandoned and closed since 1980 due to "The promotion policy of mining industry". An enormous amount of mining wastes was disposed without proper treatment, which caused soil pollution in tailing dam and ore-dressing plant areas. However, any quantitative assessment was not performed about soil and water pollution by transporting mining wastes such as acid mine drainage, mine tailing, and rocky waste. In this research, heavy metals in mining wastes were analyzed according to leaching method which used 0.1 N HCl and total solution method which used Aqua-regia to recognize the ecological effect of distance from hot spot. We sampled tailings, rocky wastes and soils around the abandoned mine. Chemical and physical parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total organic carbon (TOC), soil texture and heavy metal concentration were analyzed. The range of soil's pH is between 4.3 and 6.4 in the tailing dam and oredressing plant area due to mining activity. Total concentrations of As, Cu, and Pb in soil near ore dressing plant area are 250.9, 249.3 and 117.2 mg/kg respectively, which are higher than any other ones near tailing dam area. Arsenic concentration in tailing dams is 31.0 mg/kg, which is also considered as heavily polluted condition comparing with the remediation required level(RRL) in "Soil environment conservation Act".

This study is aimed to prepare the effective detail survey methods(Phase II) of abandoned metal mines through the contamination assessment for mine types and facilities in the abandoned metal mine areas. The study sites of 12 abandoned mines are located in Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do and those were chosen among 310 sites that the Phase II survey was conducted from 2007 to 2009 after considering the results of Phase I for abandoned mines scattered all over the country. 12 study sites were classified into four types; Type I sites only have pit mouth. Type II sites have pit mouth and mine-waste field. Type III sites have pit mouth and tailing sorting field. Type IV sites have pit mouth, tailing sorting field and concentrator(s). In forest land, paddy soil and farm land of Type I, As and Cd were showed average concentration, and Cu and Pb were high on the pit mouth area in one mines where the pit mouth was developed within 500 m. In the mines of Type II, Cu and Pb were showed average concentration too, but As and Cd were slightly high in pit mouth and mine-waste field. The mines of Type III which had grinding particle process through physical separation milling or hitting showed similar tendency with Type II. However, mines of Type IV pit mouth, mine-waste field and showed various results depending on defining the contamination sources. For example, if contamination source was pit mouth, the mixed results of Type I, II, II were showed. In tailing sorting field which was regarded as the most important source and having high mobility, however, if there were no facilities or it was difficult to access directly, field sampling was missed occasionally during phase I and phase II survey. For that reason, the assessment for tailing sorting field is missed and it leads to completely different results. In the areas of Type I mines, the concentration of heavy metals exceeded precautionary standards of soil contamination or not within 1,000 meters of pit mouth. Nickel(Ni) was the largest factor of the heavy metal contamination in this type. The heavy metals except Arsenic(As) were shown high levels of concentration in Type II areas, where pit mouth and mine-waste field were operated for making powder in upriver region; therefore, to the areas in the vicinity of midstream and downstream, the high content of heavy metals were shown. The tendency of high level of heavy metals and toxic materials contained in flotation agent used during sorting process were found in soil around sorting and tailing field. In the abandoned-pit-mouth area, drygrinding area and tailing sorting field area, the content of Cupper(Cu) and Zinc(Zn) were higher than other areas. Also, the contaminated area were larger than mine reclamation area(2,000 m) and the location of tailing sorting field was one of the important factors to estimate contaminated area.
