The Environmental impacts of Freeport-Rio Tinto's copper
This waste rock has been dumped at several sites around the Grasberg mine, and is producing strongly acidic ARD with an average pH = 3. The copper content of this rock averages 4500 grams per tonne (g/t), and experiments suggest that around 80% of this copper is likely to leach out within several years.

Paper The Application of 'Paste Rock' for Cover Systems
Abstract Conventional mine waste management systems produce a wet tailings stream and a dry waste rock stream. Tailings and waste rock have strikingly different properties with respect to texture and soil behavior. Fine grain tailings tend to feature a low permeability but are commonly discharged at high water content with low shear strength and have slow consolidation properties with high
