Abstracts List


Following suggestions from the industry and academia, the organising committee have decided to include extended abstracts in the technical program. This will provide the opportunity to submit a full manuscript to a journal or to the 12th International Conference on Acid Rock Drainage, which will be held in Brisbane in the following year (12th ICARD 2021; https://amdworkshop.com.au/icard).

Suggested themes include:

  • INAP and Global Alliance updates
  • Building better waste rock dumps and creating stable landforms
  • Mine planning and geometallurgy approach to prevent AMD
  • Case studies – lessons learned and leading practice
  • Scaling up predictions: from laboratory to field
  • New technologies and approaches for AMD prediction
  • Community and regulatory perspective and feedbacks
  • Developing a business case to prevent and control AMD  
  • Residual risk, mine closure and relinquishment
  • Improvement through collaboration – sharing the data  
  • Young achievers forum: Innovative solutions for managing AMD
  • Waste neutralisation, remediation and rehabilitation 
  • Mine water treatment for acidity, metals, metalloids, and sulfate
  • Applied mineralogy, geomicrobiology and nanoscale processes
  • Biogeochemical cycles, surface chemistry and ecotoxicity   
  • Final void and pit lake processes, modelling and treatments
  • Unsaturated zone hydrology for optimised cover design and performance
  • Consequences of a changing climate at various spatial and temporal scales 
  • Tailings storage facilities and AMD management
  • Advances in instrumentation and monitoring technologies
  • Coal mining and AMD processes including saline drainage
