Kidd Creek Mine is the deepest active base metal mine in the world, extending to a depth of 3 km below surface. The mine operators and engineers have met the ongoing challenges of mining sublevel open stopes at extreme depth through the utilisation of cutting edge technology, while expanding ...
Kidd Creek has been, to date, three mines in one, but could become even more. Three separate sections, serviced by three separate shaft systems, have and are being mined and are known as, in increasing depth, Mine Nos. 1, 2 and 3. In September 1993, Kidd Creek as a whole passed ...
Glencore Kidd Operations is a leader in mining technology adoption and recently launched a geological mapping project in collaboration with RockMass Technologies. Historically, the mine site had adopted a traditional pen and paper approach to underground mapping. In this project however, underground data...
Since 1985 natrojarosite residue (NaFe3(SO4)2(OH)6) from the zinc refinery at Kidd Creek near Timmins, Ontario, has been disposed of with mine tailings containing up to 25 wt.% pyrite. Pore-water geochemical data have been collected from depth profiles through the vadose and saturated zones...
