Environmental studies in Alice Arm and Hastings Arm, British Columbia. Part IV : Amax/Kitsault mine - transmissometry and water chemistry - July and October, 1982 / by D. Goyette, M. Thomas, C. Heim.: En40-240/85-03E-PDF
"Shortly after startup (April 1981) of the Amax/Kitsault mine located in Alice Arm, British Columbia, a midwater turbidity plume appeared as a result of tailings discharge. During July and October 1982, a series of CTD-Transmissometer profiles and water samples for gravimetric and particulate trace metal analysis were obtained from Alice Arm as part of an ongoing study by EPS to monitor the distribution of the tailings effluent. The tailings plume persisted through 1982, although some response to outfall modifications, designed to control the saltwater dilution ratio, was evident"--Abstract, page i.
