Zusammenfassung:Link for citation: Rybnikova L.S., Rybnikov P.A., Navolokina V.Y.  Rehabilitation of man-made formation of abandoned copper pyrite deposits on the example of Levikhinsky mine (Middle Urals). Bulletin of the Tomsk Polytechnic University. Geo Аssets Engineering, 2023, vol. 334, no. 8, рр. 137-150. In Rus. The relevance of the research is related to the need to rehabilitate of abandoned copper pyrite deposits affected by acid mine waters and justify measures to clean up the existing clarification pond. The main aim is to study the sludge composition and justify the measures to reduce the environmental load on the hydrosphere. Objects: clarification pond and neutralization sludge of the Levikhinsky copper pyrite mine acid mine waters. Methods. Laboratory studies of water and bottom sediments were carried out using atomic emission and mass spectral analysis; methods of flame emission spectrometry, flame atomic absorption, photometric method with Nessler's reagent, titrimetric, mercumetric and potentiometric methods; mass spectrometry with ionization in inductively coupled plasma and gravimetric method. Results. Sludge samples are dominated by sulfates (gypsum and bassanite), iron oxides and hydroxides (goethite), carbonates (calcite), clay minerals (mainly hydromica) and chlorine-containing salts (carnallite). The chemical composition of the sludge is dominated by oxides of iron, sulfur and calcium. The analysis of water and acid extracts showed that up to 24 elements belonging to hazard classes 2, 3 and 4 can be leached from the sludge in concentrations exceeding the maximum allowable values for fishery water bodies. Several options for the use of sludge from the clarification pond were analyzed: reclamation of waste rock dumps and substandard ores; backfilling of mined-out area of quarries; production of building materials; extraction of components; storage of sludge in geotubes (Geotube). The most rational is the disposal of sludge as the production of building materials on the basis of a public-private partnership, the implementation of which will allow the state and the private sector to derive mutual benefit.
