    Effects of mining activities on water around the Canakkale plain, Turkey
    (Springer, 2007) Baba, Alper; Deniz, O.; Guelen, O.
    Can region is rich in clay mines and lignite deposits. Results of major anion-cation and some trace elements in groundwater and surface water around the Can Plain, showed that groundwater is very reach with calciurn-magnesium-sulfate (Ca-Mg-SO4). Its aluminum (Al) concentrations are more than the acceptable maximum standard value. The results show that mining activity has contaminated water sources. The heavily polluted water is Currently under the international standard value around the plain. However, if precautions are not taken, these contaminants may spread in surface water and groundwater.

    ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN GROUNDWATER DISCHARGE IN OPEN MINES
    (Baski, 2023) Vepayev, Arslan; Deniz, O.
    The mining industry is a crucial focus for energy conservation efforts due to its substantial potential for energy savings, as well as the predominant use of commercial energy sources in mining operations. To enhance energy efficiency within the mining sector, it is imperative to conduct effective research in areas such as energy accounting, control systems, and capacity utilization. This study investigates the utilization of Georadar, piezometer wells, and structural geology to identify optimal horizontal well placements as part of an energy-efficient approach to water management in mining activities. The paper outlines alternative methodologies for assessing and subsequently enhancing energy efficiency in metallic mines. Throughout the exploration process, hydrogeological studies play a significant role in ensuring monitoring, safety measures (such as slope stability), and operational ease in mines. The primary objective of this research is to optimize electrical energy usage by leveraging hydrogeological studies and determining the ideal dynamic water levels required for dewatering operations. A comparative analysis between horizontal water drainage systems and pump wells is conducted, with the results scrutinized to achieve the desired underground water level equilibrium. The research yielded a notable reduction in energy consumption through the adoption of horizontal drainage wells rather than vertical pump wells for dewatering purposes in Open Pit Mining Operations. Consequently, the preference for horizontal drainage wells, which align with the established optimal water level, offers distinct advantages in the context of dewatering within Open Pit Mining Operations. © 2023 IMCET 2023 - Proceedings of the 28th International Mining Congress and Exhibition of Turkey.

    Investigation of discharge of fresh water in the Canakkale strait (Dardanelles Turkey)
    (Springer, 2007) Baba, A.; Deniz, O.; Turkoglu, M.; Ozcan, H.
    The Canakkale Strait (Dardanelles) is a water passage connecting the Aegean Sea and the Marmara Sea. Its NE/SW trend is interrupted by a north-south bend between Eceabat and Canakkale. The width of the Strait varies from 1.35 to 7.73 km, the narrowest part located between Canakkale and Kilitbahir. The average depth of the Strait is approximately 60 m; the deepest part reaches more than 100 m. The aim of this study is to determine the locations of fresh water discharge into the Canakkale Strait. For this purpose, 52 sample points were selected in the study area. The temperature, pH and salinity were measured at different depths of water in the Canakkale Strait (1, 5, 10, 20 and 30 m). A Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to create a tabular and spatial database, with the aim of integrating the physical properties in the Canakkale Strait. The results of this study show that discharge of fresh water is seen in four locations on the southeastern coast between Dardanos and Canakkale, and that the Aegean Sea and Marmara Sea water are mixing between Canakkale and Kilitbahir. In the future, these sources of fresh water may be needed as population increases in the region. However, water pollution in the Canakkale Strait may limit the use of this fresh water.
