Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

This course aims at providing integrated and quantitative geochemical tools that can be used for modelling the genesis of primary mineral deposits and evaluate the environmental impact of exploited mine sites. The course is divided in two modules and combines the use of theoretical models of fluid-mineral equilibria with practical aspects of the analysis of fluids and gases in natural environments. Our aim is providing the students with specific competence on fluid-rock interaction modelling that can be applied for the studies of primary and secondary raw materials, and competence on the practical aspects of fluid-gas analysis and their interpretation using case studies.

Contenuti

The module will present and discuss environmental issues related to mining operations and the legacies associated to abandoned mining areas. A focus on the water characteristics and secondary products will be given. Examples and approaches concerning element recovery will be given.
