(1) the green beans only needed topping and tailing(2) After tooling, cut off mortar tailings with trowel and brush excess mortar burrs and dust from face of brick.(3) Finally, he noted the ‘damage to ranch property owing to the deposit of slag and tailings on the land, and the injurious effect upon the irrigating machinery and ditches.’(4) The asphalt uses taconite tailings as a substrate instead of rock aggregate, which is more widely used in asphalt but doesn't produce a product that is as durable as the tailings-based asphalt.(5) We've come to the Kennedy Mines Tailing Wheels, which were once these four huge wheels that carried the tailings , or residue, from the mines.(6) The lake by the doorway was barely more than a large pond now, heavy and odorous with effluents leached from the tailings by rains.(7) Questions about possible adverse health effects from environmental and occupational exposures to uranium have arisen as a result of uranium mining, residual mine tailings , and the use of depleted uranium in the military.(8) Much of the pollution comes from mine tailings , or residues.(9) There were problems associated with the disposal of tons of overburden and tailings stored on the banks of the Kawerong or washed into the Jaba River, changing its flow and poisoning its waters.(10) These terra-cotta-colored walls are made of quarry tailings with cement and a little water added.(11) Hence, a deep hole dug in these dumps today can yield three-hundred-year-old tailings that contain excellent mineral specimens.(12) Heavy metal skins form on rocks downstream from mine tailings ; they can have high concentrations of copper, lead, zinc, manganese, iron, cadmium, mercury, and other heavy metals.(13) Then, in the early twentieth century, cleanup crews hauled away the tailings from the gold mine, leaving a depression that created a lake.(14) Wheeler averred that ‘slag and tailings which are put into the river by this plant do not in any way affect the water for drinking purposes.’(15) The problem was that the same water essential to the powering of industry also served to granulate and sluice hundreds of thousands of tons of slag, tailings , and smelter waste into the river.(16) The remnant ore inside the old stopes, pillars (low grade material not mined before) and tailings used as backfilling are being leached with mild acid solution.
