High Resolution Resistivity Mapping of Subsurface Controls on Acid Rock Drainage at an Active Mine Site

Geophysical methods based on electrical properties can be used to study tailings ponds studies because a site's spatial and temporal subsurface electrical resistivity values vary depending on its physical and chemical properties (texture, salinity, metals, water content, temperature, pH, etc.). This paper reviews published case studies in which electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was successfully used to characterize and monitor tailings ponds. Keywords Applied geophysics • ERT method • internal structure • AMD • dam instability • physicochemical characterization • monitoring.
