of the screening tests were used to assist in the selection of samples for more detailed,
quantitative laboratory testing.
Chromium Suite Analysis
Chromium suite analysis was undertaken to quantify existing soil acidity and potential
future acid generation from possible ASS. Soil samples were refrigerated until
transported to Pacific Geotech’s laboratory, under standard chain of custody
protocol. A summary of results is given in Table 2.
TABLE 2 CHROMIUM SUITE TESTING SUMMARY
Nett Acidity Liming Rate
BH No. Depth (m)
(mol H+/t) (kg CaCO3/t)
BH 01 1.0 <5 <1
BH 01 2.0 11 <1
BH 01 3.0 23 2
BH 01 4.0 35 3
Summary
On the basis of the testing undertaken, some samples provided nett acidity values
above the QASSIT defined action criteria at depths greater than 3m below ground
level. Therefore, soils disturbed on-site should be treated in accordance with the
attached Acid Sulfate Soil Management Plan.
The results of the laboratory testing are appended to this report.
