About the program
As part of a hands-on demonstration, students perform experiments to find out how to counteract the acid that is often generated in mine waste. Using these small-scale experiments, the class is able to calculate the quantity of treatment that is required to manage a west Tasmanian mine waste pile.
The University of Tasmania is committed to creating diverse, inclusive, and accessible educational experiences. Please let us know when registering how we can best support your needs.
