Abstract

The lateritic weathering crusts exposed in Siruka, Choiseul Islands, Solomon Islands, were developed on the expense of serpentinized peridotite underlain by Siruka schists and Voza lavas with a subhorizontal contact. The lateritic profiles consist of three generalized zones: bedrock, saprolitic zone (weathered and decomposed zone) and the limonitic zones. The profiles demonstrate variations in depths and continuity but illustrate mineralogy and geochemical affinity down profile and are analogous to saprolitic nickel laterite deposits. Silica and magnesia in the bed rock and the saprolitic zones have been removed and only the residual elements (iron, chromium, aluminium, manganese, cobalt and nickel) remain in the limonitic zone. These elements are relatively concentrated as a result of the removal of the soluble elements. Nickel is associated with silica and magnesia, as lizardite ormixed gels (garnierite nickel ore) at the weathering fronts. On the other hand, nickel, with generally low concentrations (

Abstract

Large scale block cave mining has been operated for over 30 years in the Erstberg Mining District in the province of Papua, Indonesia. The ore body is divided into four vertically stacked ore bodies: Gunung Bijih Timur (GBT), Intermediate Ore Zone (IOZ), Deep Ore Zone (DOZ), and Deep Mill Level Zone (DMLZ). The GBT and IOZ mines were closed on 1993 and 2003, DOZ mine is in its peak production performance 80 ktpd, and DMLZ mine is still in the development stage to prepare mine infrastructures. This situation generates gradual downward settling of the surface or subsidence. Significant deformation changes at the surface by block caving subsidence could damage the mine’s infrastructures in surface and underground and also affect geological structures overlying the mining areas which may result in surface impacts on the natural geomorphology and land use. In this paper, integrated system based on Geographic Information System (GIS) platform applied to predict ground movements due to underground mining. Deep Ore Zone (DOZ) block cave mine is studied for subsidence prediction. The mining extraction thickness model is obtained from height of draw (HOD) observed data. Subsidence Engineering Handbook (SEH) of empirical model and measured data from mining fields is used for subsidence calculation parameters. The calculations were performed in GIS. The maximum vertical displacement has been predicted about 12m by means of full caving mining method. Keywords: Ground movements, block caving, GIS, underground mining, and subsidence

Abstract

In 2011, laharic flow transporting volcanic materials had significantly occurred along Putih River, causing severe damage in Jumoyo area, Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. The disaster happened frequently until April 2011. The approximately 150 million cubic meter of volcanic materials expelled from 2010 Merapi eruption has been assumed as main cause of recent laharic flow. Although pyroclastic deposit mostly flew to south and southeastern direction through Woro, Gendol, and Opak Rivers, laharic flow apparently flew to the west – westward directions through Putih and Pabelan Rivers. This study will explain the mechanism of such disaster along Putih River from sedimentological point of view. Transport mechanism of laharic flow along river is strongly controlled by the slope and type of fluids. In the upper stream area, debris flow commonly occurs as gravity flow in the steep slope. To the downstream area, where more river and surface water infiltrates the volcanic material transportation, laharic flow mechanism transforms to hyperconcentrated flow. In the gently slope area, laharic flow decreases in concentration but increase in amount because of the accumulation influx from several river flows. Hyperconcentrated flow in Putih River is mostly generated by accumulation of river flow in the tributary area. In such area, loose volcanic materials are eroded easily by surface water. Rill and gully erosion bring volcanic material into main channel of Putih River, followed by intensive vertical erosion along upper stream that will produce bigger accumulation of volcanic material within laharic flow in the downstream area. Several sabo dams along the Putih River were damaged during early period of laharic flow due to this transportation mechanism. At the downstream of in Gempol Village, Jumoyo Area, the main channel of Putih River is shifting northwestward significantly due to Gendol Hill. On the other hand, river body in this settlement area is narrower compared to the upper stream area just before turning point. Both condition cause laharic flow to spill out from the channel and form an unconfined sheet debris flow with a 500 m width and around 2-4 m thick sediments. Although energy of transport is reduced significantly, but this flow is still able to transport abundant volcanic material ranging from silt to boulder. Traditional market and hundreds of houses were buried and the main road from Yogyakarta to Magelang city has been disconnected for several times due to this disaster.

Abstract

The eruptions of Merapi Volcano began in late October 2010 and continued into early November 2010. Among parts of materials ejected by Merapi Volcano, volcanic ash is considered to be a respiratory health hazard because of several potentially toxic components: respirable crystalline silica and metals. The objective of this study is to review the grain size of volcanic ash and to analyze the composition of volcanic ash which is suspected to carry a variety of potentially toxic elements. The result of this study shows that very fine grain size of volcanic ash were detected which has a potential to become respiratory problem trigger. The heavy metals were also detected in ash samples. On the other hand, total sulfur content was also considered high and the source of this sulfur was sulfur dioxide during eruption. Keywords: Merapi volcano, eruption, volcanic ash, health hazard, toxic elements.

Abstract

Since 1980s, accelerated by urbanization, Yogyakarta City was shifting to many directions defined by main road networks and service centres. Urbanization has transformed rural dwellings to become urban settlements and generated urban agglomeration area. Until now, new business centres, education centres and tourism centres are growing hand in hand with new settlements (formal or informal) without proper provision of water supply and sanitation system. This condition increase the possibility of groundwater contamination from urban wastewater and a change of major chemistry of groundwater as shallow unconfined aquifer is lying under Yogyakarta City. To prove the evolution of groundwater chemistry, old data taken on 1980s were comparing with the recent groundwater chemistry data. The evaluation shows that nitrate content of groundwater in 1980s was a minor anion, but nowadays become a major anion, especially in the shallow groundwater in the centre of Yogyakarta City. This evidence shows that there is an evolution of groundwater chemistry in shallow groundwater below Yogyakarta City due to contamination from un-proper on-site sanitation system.

Abstract

There are many traditional gold mining and processing in Murung Raya Regency, Central Kalimantan. The processing of gold mostly uses mercury (Hg) and produces a lot of waste water. It just throws to the river without any treatment. Therefore the concentration of mercury (Hg) in the river water is over than the standard of drinking water and reach up to 0.346 mg dm-3. This situation is very dangerous because almost of the people in the downstream area depend on the river water for their daily purposes. To solve this problem, tuff from local material was used to remove mercury using batch experiment. The result showed that tuff has capability to remove mercury in the significant amount. The main mechanism of mercury removal by tuff is cation exchange processes due to high surface area of tuff. The result of this study can be used as an alternative for waste water treatment in mining area. Keywords: Traditional mining, mercury removal, tuff
