The importance of pyritic roof strata in aquatic pollutant release from abandoned mines in a major, oolitic, berthierine-chamosite-siderite iron ore field, Cleveland, UK

Abstract: The Cleveland Ironstone Field (NE England) is a major sedimentary iron orefield in which the principal ore minerals are iron silicates (berthierine, chamosite) and carbonates (siderite). The siderite in this area is known to be rich in Mg and Mn in solid solution with Fe. Although this ore assemblage would not normally be expected to give rise to acid mine drainage phenomena, a number of discrete ferruginous mine water discharges (totalling some 6.5 million litres (M1) day -1) have been identified flowing from… Show more
