520 | 3 |a"Surveys were conducted during the early summer of 1974 and 1975 at United Keno Hill Mines in the Yukon Territory. The parameters examined included water chemistry, trace metals, benthic species diversity, fish concentrations, and toxicity testing. The results indicated that zinc concentrations as high as 2.0 ppm were present in the waters of Flat Creek below the tailings pond decant, which was well above the Water Use Licence limit of 0.5 ppm. Copper, cadmium, and lead concentrations were found to be above the limits of the licence, intermittently. Benthic species diversity and fish density were reduced in Flat Creek below the tailings pond decant. Bioassay samples collected from the tailings pond decant were found to be toxic on 2 occasions out of 12 sampling times"--Abstract, page i. |
