Description:   The tailings containing cyanide must be disposed of properly to ensure the cyanide will remain impounded.  Ideas for proper containment methods were outlined.  These plans included: economic value, metallurgical methods, waste treatment choices, competent disposal sites and safe disposal procedures.  These points were discussed.  A case history of Cannon Mine in Wenatchee, Washington was included as an illistration of these points.
