  • This study was aimed at identifying and quantifying mixing proportions in surface waters downstream of historical Cu-W-F skarn mine tailings at Yxsjöberg, Sweden, using 18O, 2H, and 87Sr/86Sr isotopes. In addition, a simple mathematical model was developed to evaluate the consistency of the mixing calculations. Hydrochemical and isotopic data from 2 groundwater wells, 6 surface water and 2 rainwater sampling sites, spanning 6 sampling campaigns between May and October were used. Three mixed surface waters downstream of the tailings were identified, namely: C7, C11 and C14. C7 was directly influenced by groundwater from the tailings whereas C11 was also subsequently influenced by C7. C14 on the other hand, had contributions from C11. Sequential mixing calculations indicated that the contribution of the groundwater to C7 ranges from 1 to 17%. The subsequent contribution of C7 to C11 varied from 49 to 91% whereas C14 had contributions of C11 ranging between 16 and 56%. A strong agreement between the model data (MD) and measured raw data (RD) for C11 and C14 indicated the accuracy of the mixing calculations. Variations between the MD and RD at C7, however, was mainly due to sorption and reductive processes underneath the tailings, which tend to attenuate the amount of dissolved ions reaching the surface waters, resulting in a low ionic contribution of the tailings groundwater to the surface water. The low ionic contribution of the groundwater to C7 suggested that although the tailings impoundment is of environmental concern, its impact on the downstream surface waters is small. The results of this study suggest that mixing calculations in surface waters involving a closed system such as groundwater (as an end-member) must be treated with caution. It is recommended that the interpretation of such mixing results must be coupled with detailed knowledge of the potential hydrogeochemical processes along its flow paths.
