PART 1 GLOSSARY Glossary with mining terminology [..] You are welcome to suggest changes into these working definitions and especially encouraged to discuss case-by-case if one or another site should be included or excluded in the frames of this project. Active A mine is active if it has an owner and mining activities are carried out on the site. Backfill Backfill is the material used to fill voids created by mining excavation. Closed A mine is closed if licensed mining activities are finished for the mine. The site can be non- partly or fully rehabilitated. Deposit Any sort of earth material that has been accumulated through the action of wind, water, ice, or other agents. Mineral deposits.
PART 1 GUIDE GUIDE to complete the questionnaire GENERAL COMMENTS If the data provided is an estimation write after the figure estimation. If the information required is non-existing, write non-existing. If the information exists but it is not accessible write non-accessible. If the figure is an estimation indicate, if possible, also the confidence interval. For example: Quantity of waste rock disposed on site as waste: 100,000 10,000 m 3. At any point your expert comments [..] are welcome. It could be convenient to include your comments in SECTION VI. Notes, comments and references. The questionnaire relies on your expert knowledge and professional experience.

EVALUATION OF INVENTORY DATA: SCREENING OF ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS How do mining waste landfills, backfills and underground work-out areas contribute to environmental pollution? Case-specific, every case depending on a large number of physical, chemical and technological parameters - however, many cases are very similar with respect to environmental impacts
EVALUATION OF INVENTORY DATA: DEPOSIT-SCALE ASSESSMENT - GEOENVIRONMENTAL MAPPING Geoenvironmental models: Deposits can be classified into different types, each type having similar geochemical environmental signature, for example a potential - to produce acid drainage (presence and particle sizes of sulphides), and - to buffer acid drainage (presence of carbonates and alumosilicates). USGS: (1) mining districts likely to generate highly acidic, heavy-metal-rich acid drainage waters (2) mining districts that can generate acidic to non-acidic mine-drainage waters with elevated levels of some heavy metals (3) mining districts likely to generate non- acidic mine drainage with low levels of acid drainage
