광양 폐 금-은 광산지역의 소규모 하천(초남리천과 사곡리천)에 흐르는 산성광산폐수의 수질 특성을 환경지구화학적 방법을 이용하여 조사하고 비교 연구하였다. 중금속(카드뮴, 구리, 납, 아연) 오염은 초남리천에서 훨씬 심한 것으로 나타난 반면, 용존 알루미늄과 철 함량은 오히려 사곡리천에서 높았는데, 두 하천간의 이러한 차이는 광산폐수의 기원물질, 즉 광석광물의 함량과 특성이 서로 다르기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 두 하천에서 흐르는 산성광산폐수의 자연정화 기작에 대해 고찰하여 보았다. 주로 단일하천으로 이루어진 초남리천의 경우, 석회석을 사용하여 광산폐수를 정화시키는 소규모의 소택지가 조성되어 있어 소택지 내에서의 pH 증가에 따른 중금속의 흡착과 공침에 의해 중금속이 제거되고 있다. 초남리천에서 채취한 적황색 침전물에 대하여 XRD, SEM-EDS. EPMA 분석 및 화학적 분해법을 이용한 분석 결과, 적황색 침전물은 대부분 침철석으로 구성되어 있으며 알루미늄, 망간, 구리, 아연 등이 부화되어 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 이들 금속들은 주로 적황색 침전물의 생성에 수반된 흡착이나 공침과 같은 지구화학적 반응에 의해 제거되는 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 소택지의 중금속 제거능은 계절적으로 변화하는 하천의 유량에 의해 영향을 받고 있다. 반면, 사곡리천의 경우에는 오염되지 않은 여러 지류와의 혼합에 수반된 pH 증가에 따라 철수산화물이 침전하면서 중금속의 제거가 일어나고 있다. 오염 하천과 비오염 지류와의 합류 지점에서 발생하는 중금속 제거의 기작은 '특성-특성도(property-property plot)'를 활용한 해석에 의해서도 뒷받침된다.

대영광산(일명 대마광산)은 함금은석영맥을 주 대상으로 채광한 금 은광산으로, 주 광해유발요인은 광물찌꺼기 적치장, 폐석장, 갱구 등 이다. 광물찌꺼기 적치장의 주 오염원소는 As와 Pb이다. 특히 As의 경우 3,424.41~3,803.61 mg/kg로 1지역 대책기준의 45배 이상으로 As에 의한 오염이 매우 심각한 것으로 파악되었다. 오염원소를 보면 오염원인 광물찌꺼기가 고농도의 As를 함유하고 있으며, 오염원의 영향을 받는 주변의 매체에서도 공통적으로 As 오염이 확인되고 있다. 이러한 As 오염은 광물찌꺼기 적치장과의 지형적 상관성이나 이격거리에 따라 오염정도가 달라지는 특성을 나타낸다. 즉 광물찌꺼기 적치장의 상류지역은 하류지역에 비해 오염정도가 낮으며, 광물찌꺼기 적치장의 하류지역에서는 광물찌꺼기 적치장과의 거리가 멀어질수록 오염도가 낮아지는 경향을 보인다. 특히 광물찌꺼기 적치장 주변에서 고농도 오염이 집중적으로 나타나고 있다. 이러한 특성으로 볼 때, 연구지역의 주 오염경로 중의 하나는 광물찌꺼기의 유실로 볼 수 있다. 광물찌꺼기 적치장 하류수계를 따라 As 오염이 확인되었으며, 이러한 현상은 현 하천보다는 구 하천에서 상대적으로 높게 나타나고 있다. 이는 광물찌꺼기 적치장에 대한 유실방지시설을 설치하기 전에 구 하천으로 다량의 광물찌꺼기가 유실되었음을 의미한다. 또한 광물찌꺼기 적치장의 하류수계 농경지에서 하천 범람 시에 영향을 상대적으로 더 받게 되는 하천변 50 m 이내의 농경지 오염도가 50 m 이상의 농경지에 비해 높게 나타났다. 이러한 특성으로 볼 때, 유실된 광물찌꺼기가 하천을 따라 이동하다가 범람에 의해 농경지로 유입되면서 오염이 발생하는 경로도 주 오염경로로 판단된다.

The Sangdong tungsten (mostly scheelite) mine is located on the southern limb of a major syncline, the Hambaeg syncline, in a thick sequence of lower Paleozoic sedimentary rocks in the mideastern part of south Korea. Productive scheelite mineralization in Sangdong area is confined to one single formation, the Myobong Slate. Four major ore beds, which have an lateral extension over than 1 km and were not heavily subjected to spatial disturbance, are developed in the Myobong Formation. The original materials of the ore-comprising horizones were probably of either calcareous or silceous sediments. The four ore beds, especially in the case of Main ore bed, display both lateral and vertical zoning. Association quartz-mica-scheelite is predominant in the central, while association hornblende-quartz-diopside-scheelite, diopside-garnet and wollastonite-garnet are developed in this order towards the periphery of the ore beds. Petrologically, two phases of thermometamorphism are recognized. The first phase is represented by the association wollastonite-garnet and diopside-garnet, while the second phase by the association hornblende-quartz-diopside-scheelite and quartz-mica-scheelite. The associations of the second phase do constitute prodctive ore. The high background value of tungsten in the area surrounding the Sangdong mine reveals that the area can be considered a geochemical zone enriched in tungsten. Studies on the trace element patterns were carried out to draw useful criteria for the purpose of future geochemical exploration in the area. The increasing trend of the ratio Rb $({\times}1000)/K_2O$ of the Myobong Slate towards the known mineralization area proved to be indicative for the presence of tungsten mineralization.

In order to study the optimum depth for the soil geochemical exploration in the area which is affected by agricultural activities and waste disposal of metal mine, the soil samples were sampled from the B layer of residual soil and vertical 7 layers up to 250 cm in the rice field and 3 layers up to 90 cm in the ordinary field. They were analyzed for Au, As, Cu, Pb and Zn by AAS, AAS-graphite furnace and ICP. To investigate the proper depth for the soil sampling in the contaminated area, the data were treated statistically by applying correlation coefficient, factor analysis and trend analysis. It is conclude that soil geochemical exploration method could be applied in the farm-land and a little contaminated area. The optimum depth of soil sampling is 60 cm in the ordinary field, and 150~200 cm in the rice field. Soil sampling in the area of a huge mine waste disposal is not recommendable. Plotting of geochemical map with factor scores as a input data shows a clear pattern compared with the map of indicater element such as As or Au. The second or third degree trend surface analysis is effective in inferring the continuity of vein in the area where the outcrop is invisible.

In the South Korea, 47% of abandoned mines are suffering from the mining hazards such as the mine drainage (MD), the mine tailings and the waste rocks. Among them the mine drainage which has a low pH and the high concentration of heavy metals can directly contaminate rivers or soil and cause serious damages to human health. The natural/artificial treatment facilities by using neutralizers and coagulants for the mine drainage have been operated in domestic and most of heavy metals in mind drainage are precipitated and removed in the form of metal hydroxide, alumino-silicate or carbonate, generating a large amount of mine drainage treated sludge ('MDS' hereafter) by-product. The MDS has a large surface area and many functional groups, showing high efficiency on the fixation of heavy metals. The purpose of this study is to develop a ingenious heavy metal stabilizer that can effectively stabilize arsenic (As) and heavy metals in soil by recycling the MDS (two types of MDS: the acid mine drainage treated sludge (MMDS) and the coal mine drainage treated sludge (CMDS)). Various analyses, toxicity evaluations, and leaching reduction batch experiments were performed to identify the characteristics of MDS as the stabilizer for soils contaminated with As and heavy metals. As a result of batch experiments, the Pb stabilization efficiency of both of MDSs for soil A was higher than 90% and their Zn stabilization efficiencies were higher than 70%. In the case of soil B and C, which were contaminated with As, their As stabilization efficiencies were higher than 80%. Experimental results suggested that both of MDSs could be successfully applied for the As and heavy metal contaminated soil as the soil stabilizer, because of their low unit price and high stabilization efficiency for As and hevry metals.

To evaluate the potential capacity of mine wastes in the production of heavy metal containing acid water, samples from depths of 0, 30 and 60cm were collected and analyzed. The waste from surface showed the lowest pH which indicates the oxidation of wastes and the capacity of contamination of the area around the waste file. And the lower pH values of leachate of the wastes through the leaching tests with pH controlled water(3, 4, 5) may indicate that minerals producing the acidity still exist. Reduction of sulfur contents in wastes after the leaching test well fit to the increased contents of iron oxide.

The Donghae mine locates at Jangjoari, Koseongun, Kyongsang-nam-do. The geology of the mine consists of the upper part of Chin dong Formation conformably overlain by tuffaceous Koseong Formation. These formations are intruded by the granodiorite and the basic dikes. The ore mineralization occurs in the fault breccia pipe at the center of a granodiorite stock. The estimated dimension of the breccia pipe is $7m{\times}70m{\times}200m$. The host rock has distinctive hydrothermal alteration halos consisting hematite zone, chlorite zone, epidote zone and sericite zone from outer zone to the ore vein. The ore mineralization occurred in the three distinctive stages. The ore minerals formed in the first stage are pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, stannite and tetrahedrite. Galena and arsenopyrite are formed in the second stage. Some sphalerite grains include exsolution dots of the chalcopyrite. It is suggested that the ore mineralization occurred by a boiling of a hydrothermal fluid during its initial stage and subsequent cooling and $CO_2$ fugacity drop of remaining hydrothermal fluid by a ground water mixing aided vertical zoning of the ore minerals.
