Aquatic Effects Monitoring Program (AEMP) 2019 Re-evaluation, Part 2, Ekati Diamond Mine (Dominion Diamond, December 2019)
This 2019 Aquatic Effects Monitoring Program (AEMP) re-evaluation report for Ekati Diamond Mine presents principal components analysis (PCA) of lake and stream benthos data, fish biology variables, and fish tissue metal concentrations collected from 1994–2018. The analysis integrates monitoring data to assess spatial and temporal trends in aquatic communities and identify potential mine-related environmental effects.
