$BCCEF Looks to have found a better solution to a MAJOR problem as u can see the other techniques are costly and uneffective!

Current reclamation techniques are subject to some limitations. Capping and amending tailings can be very expensive. Phytostabilization techniques, which utilize lime addition, pose the additional threat of reacidification once the neutralizing capacity of the amendment has been consumed. In addition to the threat of reacidification, total metal concentrations are unchanged by in-place tailing reclamation. Water soluble metal concentrations in the rootzone are reduced by lime addition to acid tailings allowing for plant establishment, yet pH control is permanently required. High cost of implementation, coupled with risk of reacidification and release of metals, causes concern for the permanence and feasibility of in-place tailing reclamation techniques.
