  Hydrogeologic impacts in the Estonian oil shale deposit
 
 
Titel: Hydrogeologic impacts in the Estonian oil shale deposit
Auteur: Erg, Katrin
Pastarus, Jyri-Rivaldo
Verschenen in: International journal of mining, reclamation and environment
Paginering: Jaargang 22 (2008) nr. 4 pagina's 300-310
Jaar: 2008-12
Inhoud: The article describes the hydrogeological problems related to water influx to the mine and water sulphate content association with underground oil shale mining in an environmentally sensitive area of Estonia. The water balance method was used to calculate the ratio of mine water outflow/inflow. Water balance calculations are needed for estimating the groundwater transversal flow into closed mines. Before oil shale mining groundwater geochemical processes are characterised by low sulphate content. Dewatering of oil shale mines lowered groundwater level in the Keila-Kukruse aquifer, and caused an about 50-fold increase in sulphate by intensive oxidation of pyrite of natural origin. The mobile sulphate ion may serve as an indicator of changes occurring in the sulphate content of groundwater stored in the Keila-Kukruse and Lasnamae-Kunda aquifers of the Ordovician system in the area of closed and working mines. Using the method of inverse mixing, sulphate ion distribution is a possibility to study the movement of groundwater in lateral and transversal directions.
