Hydrogeological Testing and Characterization
Fresnillo Mine, Zacatecas, Mexico
Geofirma was retained by Mine Design Engineering (MDEng) to provide hydrogeological expertise in support of the geotechnical engineering design of a shaft at a large operating mine in central Mexico.
Detailed Water Balance
eofirma was retained to calculate a detailed water balance of a small marsh, to evaluate any impacts proposed construction may have on the marsh. Initial field data collected included a surface water assessment, vegetation survey, and a high resolution LiDAR survey.
Site Remediation: Coal Tar Contamination
Similarly to many Ontario cities, Kingston was once fueled by coal gas. The manufacturing process resulted in deep bedrock contamination beneath parts of the downtown core. Geofirma was retained to complete all aspects of assessment and remediation in the DNAPL source zone for the City.
