Acid Generation and Heavy Metal Leachability from Lignite Spoil Heaps: Impact to the Topsoils of Oropos Basin, North Attica, Greece
The disposal of lignite spoil and tailings poses a major environmental problem in lignite mining sites which is associated with the oxidation of sulfide minerals contained in the primary ore. This process renders acidic effluents. Lignite mining in the Oropos Neogene basin, North Attica, Greece oper...

This process renders acidic effluents. Lignite mining in the Oropos Neogene basin, North Attica, Greece operated since the last century and ceased in the late 1960s. Piles of complex waste material are dispersed close to the mining sites. The high sulfur content and low Net Neutralization Potential, i.e. values |
