Mine remediation is the process of restoring land after been mined back to its natural state. ]]> 2021-01-27 22:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134015558 Denise Bretado https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134020610 Acceptable remedies
Cover tailings to reduce contact with precipitation
Sedimentation ponds/retention basins
Bioremediation by sulfate-reducing bacteria

(Failure to remediate area.)]]> 2021-01-27 22:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134023767 Steps for Mining remediation https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134024282 Jason Robertson

1. Change the topography back to its original state
2. Replace or add topsoil/nutrients to improve soil quality
3. Plant or replant native vegetation (fast growing species)
4. Monitor the landscape for 5-10 years to make sure everything turns out okay]]> 2021-01-27 22:11:54 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134024282 Marcel Sandoval https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134024605 Government on Mining
Laws have been placed in order to stop companies and businesses from tearing up the land for minerals and ores without them having to take any steps to help clean up the mess they have created.]]> 2021-01-27 22:12:02 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134024605 Effects of mining https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134027653 Haley Young
mining is a destructive process and it can take hundreds of years to return an area to its original topography. Leaving an area in disrepair would present signs of soil erosion, risk of mudslides, lowered albedo, as well as other potentially deadly effects to the environment that was mined.]]> 2021-01-27 22:13:20 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134027653 kaleb fernandez https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134033448 consequences of strip mining - 
leaves lots of tailings and is inefficient due to soil erosion. the materials are removed and the land is left ripped apart. rain then washes the loose sediments away and pollutes nearby waters.]]> 2021-01-27 22:15:57 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134033448 Mine remediation in an arid climate https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134033492 Mai-Lynn
-there will be difficulty re-establishing vegetation due to:
    -low precipitation and soil fertility
-since there is no vegetation, land is more prone to landslides, soil erosion, and runoff]]> 2021-01-27 22:15:59 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134033492 Isaac Basurto https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134048128 Remediating acid mining
This can be done through adding a base to counteract the acidification of water and soil. Remove tailings as to prevent contact with precipitation. Use bioremediation the process of using or introducing other life forms to break down pollutants.]]> 2021-01-27 22:23:04 UTC https://padlet.com/1dcgilber11/30tev2jzqjc2s51q/wish/1134048128
