Mine Earth’s Dr. Véronique Lévy Co-Authors Paper at ICARD Canada Conference 2024

Mine Earth is pleased to announce that Dr. Véronique Lévy, Senior Principal Geochemist, has co-authored a paper presented at the ICARD conference hosted by the Canadian Institute of Mining in Halifax this week.


The paper, titled "The Importance of Quality Control of Alkalinity Data during Pit Lake Modelling," emphasizes the critical role of alkalinity in acid neutralization and its influence on closure strategies. This research highlights Dr. Lévy's commitment to producing reliable water quality predictions essential for effective site closure.


Additionally, we would like to recognize Dr. Peter Scott, the principal author of the paper, who presented this important work at the conference. Congratulations to all three co-authors for their significant contribution!
