Abstract

This paper describes the application of a three-dimensional geoscience modelling system to the analysis of Acid Mine Drainage problems.

It can be applied either in a predictive context to forecast the affects of future mining activities, or in a monitoring context to determine the degree and extent of Acid Mine Drainage related problems.

The results presented in this paper were generated by the LYNX Geotechnical Modelling System (GMS) for environmental engineering.
