Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

How stupid does one have to be to believe that gold mines are unviable if you can't dump tailings in the local rivers ... FD?


What exactly are you imagining that people believe John?

dunno. is a 'site' identical with 'option'?


A site is generally an option that works, an option may not be a site that works. Four sites struck down, what does that leave? Roll Eyes

r Labor cheerleaders at least.


'Western Sydney University professor Ian Wright has been researching the impact of Cadia's operations on water sources. EPA executive director of operations Jason Gordon confirmed the watchdog had identified groundwater monitoring as a "priority" in its current review of the mine's licence. Dr Wright said Cadia's licence did not specify pollutant limits for groundwater or require the monitoring of any material in waste storage'.

The pollution is OK because the licence doesn't say anything about pollution...

'At Cadia, we use water from a variety of sources: surface water, ground water, tailings reclamation and mine dewatering. Where practical, we recycle water'.
Water.
'We provide comprehensive solutions for mining waters. We help to remove problem contaminants, treat mine waters, achieve minimal liquid discharge (MLD) or zero liquid discharge (ZLD), or recover valuable metals. There is no single solution for mining waters.'
'a colourless, transparent, odourless liquid that forms the seas, lakes, rivers, and rain and is the basis of the fluids of living organisms.
"sodium chloride dissolves in water"
aqua
H2O
Adam's ale
2. a stretch or area of water, such as a river, sea, or lake.

click on the link
look at the picture of the whiz bang ka ching.
It is on concrete.
The concrete is cracked but should be OK.
Concrete is placed on land, I know, that's all we have unless we're on water but there are options there as well.

Concrete.
The machine is on concrete.
'a matrix of cementitious binder (typically Portland cement paste or asphalt) and a dispersed phase or "filler" of aggregate (typically a rocky material, loose stones, and sand). The binder "glues" the filler together to form a synthetic conglomerate'.
The treatment company is in business because it's profitable for
1) gold miners
2) the treatment company
to treat tailings.
Gold is worth money.Money is any item or verifiable record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts,

Yes, How exactly does it remove the waste. chimera wrote on Aug 20th, 2024 at 7:41pm:

That depends on the purity of the product that gets there. There may be so little that the cost outweighs the income. Roll Eyes

Yes that's why I deleted it. You still haven't shown that it would be profitable in all situations.

Dear Lee,
We stand on land. When the nice man puts concrete on the land, we can stand on the concrete. Then another work-person comes along and puts the shiny machine on the concrete on the land. He plugs in the pointy plug thing and wowee.
The concrete is not used to treat the water. The water is not treated by concrete. Treatment is done by the machine. Not by the concrete. Everbody suddenly gets lots of money and buys lollies.

Nope. You haven't shown that. You jump from "machine" to a guaranteed profit from the tailings dam. You don't know how efficient the plant was BEFORE the treatment. Like a lot of people you believe "and then the magic happens". Grin Grin Grin Grin
