Groundwater chemistry in the Schefferville, Quebec iron deposits
Abstract
Input precipitation quality, soil clay mineral reactions and aquifer mineral dissolution control the quality of groundwater in an area of discontinuous permafrost in the Laborador Trough iron deposits near Schefferville, Quebec. Na and Cl are derived from precipitation and K from clay minerals. Ca, Mg and HCO3 concentrations and pH are governed by the extent of mixing of saturated water from a dolomite unit with water from other, non-carbonate …
