摘 要:Dabaoshan Mine,the largest mine in south China,has been developed since the *** mine drainage (AMD) discharged from the mine has caused severe environmental pollution and human health *** this article,chemical characteristics,mineralogy of ocher precipitations and heavy metal attenuation in the AMD are discussed based on physicochemical analysis,mineral analysis,sequential extraction experiments and *** AMD chemical characteristics were determined from the initial water composition,water-rock interactions and dissolved sulfide minerals in the mine *** waters,affected and unaffected by AMD,were Ca-SO4 and Ca-HCO3 types,*** affected water had a low pH,high SO42 and high heavy metal content and oxidation as determined by the Fe^2+ /Fe^3+ *** metal and SO4^2- contents of Hengshi River water decreased,while pH increased,*** was the major mineral at the waste dump,while goethite and quartz were dominant at the tailings dam and *** was transformed into goethite at the tailings dam and *** sulfate ions of the secondary minerals changed from bidentate-to monodentate-complexes ***-Mn oxide phases of Zn,Cd and Pb in sediments increased ***,organic matter complexes of Cu in sediments increased further away from the ***^3+ mineral precipitates and transformations controlled the AMD water chemistry.
