Magino Mine Effluent Tracking

Otto Lake - Herman Lake Narrows

Ontario, Canada

Magino Mine Site discharges the effluent into Otto Lake, after a series of passive water management. Diffusers at the end of the discharge pipe help with the dilution process. Testing the narrows before water flows into Herman Lake serves as a prefect location to determine potential contamination concentrations entering the much larger body of water of Herman Lake.
