Part one
Make a 3 list of chemical safety hazards?
The three chemical safety hazards are:
Poison
Toxic
Corrosive
Reactive
Environmental hazards
2. What is Amalgam? Amalgam is mixture of metals of mercury with another metal and other metal. Almost all metal can be an amalgam with a form of mercury.
3. If you had to train someone on how to separate the mercury from the amalgam, what training would they need? WHY?
If I had to train someone on how to separate the mercury from the amalgam, I would train them on how to use safety equipment like: goggles and why is it important. As mercury is one of the harmful substance, i would make an awareness on safety hazards to let them know how to be safe while they are using mercury …show more content…
Arsenic trioxide was the dust outcome of gold extractions which happened during time period of 1948 to 2004 at the mine. According to the report 2010 it was mentioned that dust was captured as arsenic-rich gas and stored in underground Chambers.
2. How is the Giant Mine Remediation Project using technology to solve the arsenic trioxide …show more content…
The technology that they use was metal tube. Through the help of metal tube they took the heat created by arsenic that was melting the frost which potentially allowing water to be contaminated as the arsenic spreads into the water supply. As according to the aboriginals affairs and Northern Development Canada (AANDC) ‘Giant Mine Remediation Project aim to freeze 237000 tonnes of arsenic trioxide dust stored in chambers under the mine in yellowknife, N.W.T in order to keep it from contaminating nearby water.” (1) As this quote shows how they are planning on freezing arsenic trioxide so it wouldn't pollute the water. The process that they are using is called frozen block process.
3. Read the list of social benefits provided by the Mining Association of canada. Which Benefit do you think is the most useful for people in canada?
In my opinion I think that Economic Engine is the most useful one and benefits the Canada because it helps to develop and rise Canada’s economic as a whole country. In our country Mining has contributed more than $57 billion to Canada's gross domestic Product in 2014. Over the last decade the mining industry’s payment to the Canadian federal and provincial government as in the totals around 71 billion dollars. As a whole country beneficial I think that Economic Engine is more useful for people in
