Beartooth Pipe Preliminary Waste Rock Storage Management Plan (SRK Consulting, January 2002)
1 January 2002Report
This preliminary waste rock storage management plan for BHP Billiton's Beartooth Pipe development describes geochemical testing, site characterization, and management strategies for waste rock disposal in the Panda/Koala waste rock storage area. The document concludes that approximately 99% of waste rock (biotite granite) has low reactivity, while small components of biotite schist are potentially acid-generating and will be segregated and encapsulated with non-reactive granite to ensure freezing conditions.
