Description: ABSTRACT: A detailed literature review identified information on the generation of acid and its migration in various modes of water movement.  An evaluation of information related to acid generation, acid neutralization, metal leaching, and water mouvement at Equity Silver Mines, focussing on the Main Zone Pit was given.  The creation and application of a predictive model, named MINEWALL, to the Main Zone Pet was used to determine if acidic conditons diveloped during decommissioning.
