Geological and Mining Engineering and Sciences at Michigan Tech

Hydrogeology and Environmental Studies

Environmental/Aqueous Geochemistry

We have been monitoring selected small watersheds, and comparing hydrologic and chemical outputs to those of large watersheds which also drain into Lake Superior, to help develop geochemical cycling models of the Lake Superior basin. With a transfer student from Germany, we are studying the mineralogy and weathering characteristics of local mine waste deposits (stamp sands), to help determine if they pose a potential environ mental hazard.
