Abstract
The study was performed to determine the impact of mine water discharges from the Jeremenko pit on water quality in the Ostravice River. Three sampling points marked under the letters „A”, „B” and „C” were determined for monitoring. The first of the sampling points was designated before the inflow of mine water to determine the parameters of the river before pollution by mine water. Sampling point “B” indicated the inflow of mine water and the last sampling point was used to determine the parameters after mixing mine water with water from the river Ostravice. According to the research, mine water is strongly mineralized with an increased content of salts, chlorides, sulphates and has an increased temperature of up to 28 °C. Based on the analysis of individual results, a significant effect of the inflow of mine water from the Jeremenko pit on the water in the Ostravice River in its immediate vicinity was proved. When compared with the results of other authors, it was found that the concentration of sulfates and chlorides in mine water decreases in the long run.
