16 Lateral Variation in Baseline Lead Concentrations 7500

17 Box plots of historic and baseline sediment-deposition rates

18 Box plots of Pb concentrations in sediments of successive time intervals Figure 23. Box-and-whisker plots, comparing interval-weighted average lead (ppm Pb) in sediments of the early post-tailings-release (BA1) and baseline (AA) time-stratigraphic intervals. n = 13 90th percentile 75th 50th 25th 10th 4000 3300

19 Percentages of tailings-derived Pb in sediments by drainage basin, and by depositional setting

20 Lead Concentrations in Suspended Sediment

21 1996 Scour of Pb-Rich Sediments in the River near Dudley Approximate location of drill hole 94VCD2 Log exposed by flood scour Stored Pb-rich sediments (well stratified) River bottom before 1996 flood Scoured zone Sandy active bed sediment (poorly stratified)

22 Secondary Sources of Pb-Rich Sediment in the River Channel ’96 scour
