Description:    A study was conducted at the Cinola Gold Project on the Queen Charlotte Islands, off the coast of British Columbia. The study examined weathering trends of the waste rock which was brought to the surface due to the gold mining. Leachate testing was performed on seepage from waste rock leach ponds. Testing was also done using leach columns to determine the effects limestone addition to the waste rock would have on the release of heavy metals. A list of items needing further research was provided.
