Block P Mine - waste rock dump Block P mine adit, slope Galena ck in August looking upstream from the lower end of the Block P mine dump Galena Ck waste removal at the Block P mine adit. Block P mine dump slope - Aug 2012 Block P mine slope and Galena Ck post-removal. Block P complex repository and cover soil southwest view Repository view to the sw Block P complex repository liner Block P Complex repository - south end, with final cover and perimeter drain. Seep #2 after cement has been poured Pioneering road over the stream. Compacting soil around seep #2 just below the 75 level portal Note the mine void exposed in seep #2. Flow increased slightly after opening void but was about equal to base flow after a few hours. Power spraying loose soils and debris from exposed bedrock outcrop at seep #2. Seep #3 showing grouting of fractures. Idea is to place compacted bentonite amended soil over this seep area. Clean water diversion outfall just above lower culvert. Milky water above outfall is due to power washing of seep #2 Beginning to place bentonite amended soil around seep #1 Note the wet soils and seeps just below seep #2 along the toe. Sump placed just below upper culvert to capture clean seeps Additional seeps just below seep #2 prior to placement of bentonite amended soil Site was expecting up to 2 inches of rain on Thursday, Sept. 14. This photo taken Tuesday afternoon shows the construction of a temporary stream channel in case Galena Creek overflows the temporary dam and needs to flow through a diversion channel. Small seep emanating from toe just below 75 level portal Started to rain in the morning, which was followed by snow. Snow was expected to fall for the next 36 hours on Site. Work shut down until it dried out. Placing common fill between seeps 1 and 2 where the culvert will be installed Culvert being installed.
