When does acid mine drainage occur?

Advanced Placement (AP)
1 answer:
zaharov [31]3 years ago
3 0
Acid rock drainage occurs naturally within some environments as part of the rock weathering process but is problemed by large-scale earth disturbances characteristic of mining and other large construction activities, usually within rocks containing an abundance of sulfide minerals. Areas where the earth has been disturbed (e.g. construction sites, subdivisions, and transportation corridors) may create acid rock drainage. In many localities, the liquid that drains from coal stocks, coal handling facilities, coal washeries, and coal waste tips can be highly acidic, and in such cases it is treated as acid rock drainage.
