Figure ~0 indicates that the water quality in Foidel Creek is dominated by the water quality of <br />• the discharge from Pond A. Pond A receives the discharge of the largest spoil springs. The <br />spoil springs are characterized by high dissolved solids, calcium, magnesium, sulfate and SAR <br />compared with bedrock groundwater and unaffected surface waters. Station 11=1 also shows <br />comparatively high manganese and high nitrate levels. Most of the Mine 1 spoil springs have <br />elevated manganese levels. <br />Due to [he small size of the flows and the low conductivity (1200 umhos/em in 1992) the spoil <br />spring discharges from Mine 2 have no impact on Fish Creek. <br />• <br />r-1 <br />L_J <br />
