SUMMARY:EFG Academy: Environmental Geochemistry for the Mine Project Life Cycle
DESCRIPTION:Join the “Environmental Geochemistry for the Mine Project Life Cycle” workshop organised by the EFG Academy. This virtual course includes four two-hour sessions over four weeks\, starting Tuesday\, 1st October\, 15:00-17:00 CEST. Learn about acid generation\, metals leaching\, and environmental regulations. Ideal for geologists\, environmental scientists\, geochemists\, and mine professionals. Enhance your skills in predicting mine water quality and managing materials throughout the mine life cycle. \nWhen: Every Tuesday\, 15:00-17:00 CEST\, starting 1st October\, for 4 consecutive weeks (8h total) \nWhere: Online \nPresenter: Tom Meuzelaar\, Ph.D. \nDelivery: four two-hour sessions\, to be conducted virtually\, over four consecutive weeks. \n\nSession 1: Technical and Regulatory Setting on Tuesday\, 1st October\, 15:00-17:00 CEST\nSession 2: Assessing Environmental Behavior on Tuesday\, 8th October\, 15:00-17:00 CEST\nSession 3: Predicting Mine Water Quality on Tuesday\, 15th October\, 15:00-17:00 CEST\nSession 4: Materials Management and Optimization on Tuesday\, 22nd October\, 15:00-17:00 CEST\n\nCourse outline:  \n\nSession 1: Technical and Regulatory Setting\n\nFundamentals of acid generation and metals leaching\n\nSources of acidity\nSources of metals\nAcid neutralization\nMetal leaching and attenuation\n\n\nRegulatory and Operational framework\n\nEuropean Commission Best Available Techniques (EC BAT)\nInternational Guidance: MEND and GARD\n\n\n\n\nSession 2: Assessing Environmental Behavior\n\nCharacterization testing programs\n\nAcid base accounting\nPaste and NAG pH\nSulfur\, NPR and NNP\nMineralogy and short-term leach\nHumidity cell testing\nField testing\n\n\n\n\nSession 3: Predicting Mine Water Quality\n\nLong-term modeling of:\n\nWaste facilities\nPit lakes\nTailings storage facilities\n\n\n\n\nSession 4: Materials Management and Optimization\n\nDevelopment of segregation criteria\n\nSimple cutoff\nComplex domains\n\n\nVolume estimation for mine planning\n\nFeasibility\nOperations\n\n\nAdaptive management strategies\n\n\n\nLearning outcomes:  \n\nLearn the fundamentals of acid generation and metals leaching\nUnderstand regulatory drivers for environmental characterization studies\nUnderstand how static and kinetic test programs are developed and executed\nLearn how water quality associated with various mine facilities can be predicted during operations and into closure\nUnderstand how material types are classified\, segregated and managed during the mine life cycle\n\nTarget audience: \n\nGeologists\nEnvironmental scientists\nGeochemists\nMine Professionals\n\nFees: \n\nEurGeol: 280 € (incl. 21% Belgian VAT)\nRegular: 310 € (incl. 21% Belgian VAT)\n\nRegistration is open\, save your spot: https://tinyurl.com/EFGA-Env-Geo
