This 13-page PDF provides information about the reclamation of the Zortman and Landusky gold mines in the Little Rocky Mountains of north-central Montana. The project is currently being undertaken by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and is funded by the Reclamation Bond. The purpose of this study is to identify the location, extent and probable contaminant loads from the sites; and to identify candidate materials for suitable cover and remediation purposes. This paper describes the material characterization program, as well as method and rationale developed to prioritize the remediation measures.
