Evaluating Spatial Patterns of Heavy Metal Levels and Pb Isotopic Compositions of Peat Soils along the Red Dog Mine Haul Road in Northwest Alaska

Creator:

Melby, Kali M.

Abstract:

This study evaluates ore transport and other mining activities on metal levels in the remote Arctic ecosystem of Cape Krusenstern National Monument (CAKR) in northwestern Alaska. This monument is 50 km SW of Red Dog Mine, one of the world’s largest Pb–Zn mines. The Delong Mountain Transportation System (DMTS) haul...

Geochemical Fingerprinting of Metals from Non-Ferrous Smelting Emissions within Lake Sediments

Creator:

Rutila, Elizabeth C.

Abstract:

The research presented in this thesis seeks to further our understanding of the geochemical signatures that can be used to trace and quantify non-ferrous smelting emission inputs into the environment. Strong evidence suggests that emissions from the non-ferrous smelter in Trail, BC are the primary source of metals deposited from...
