Time-lapse geophysical monitoring of acid mine drainage at Savage River Mine, North-western Tasmania. This project will apply geophysical methods to image and monitor the subsurface distribution, and short and long-term temporal variations in ground conductivity associated with Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) at the Savage River Mine, Tasmania. AMD is a major environmental problem affecting mining operations across Australia.

This project will apply geophysical methods to image and monitor the subsurface distribution, and short and long-term temporal variations in ground conductivity associated with Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) at the Savage River Mine, Tasmania. AMD is a major environmental problem affecting mining operations across Australia. Geophysical techniques are inexpensive means of mapping variations in subsurface electrical conductivity related to changes in groundwater levels and contaminant concentration. The major outcomes of this project will be development of appropriate geophysical methods and interpretation techniques for delineation and monitoring of AMD at sites characterised by high seasonal rainfall and significant topography.Read moreRead less
