Hydraulic Performance Evaluation of Clay, Laterite, and Bentonite-Modified Laterite Soils for Use as Liner Materials

Artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) generates large volumes of tailings that pose serious risks to soil and groundwater due to inadequate containment systems. Developing cost-effective, locally available liner materials is therefore critical to improving environmental protection in resource-constrained setting...
