Abstract

This chapter addresses the general properties and characteristics of the following residue categories: mining wastes, mineral processing wastes or tailings, metallurgical wastes (slags, dusts, slimes, and muds), and wastewaters. Residue origin, storage, disposal, and a brief indication of associated environmental impacts are discussed; concrete examples are given for illustration purposes.
