ABSTRACT:
The present invention combines an alkaline mixture, adjuvant surfactant, and water, thereby creating a treatment mixture, for eliminating acid generation in sulfide bearing material. After determining a level of acidity of a sulfide bearing material, a user derives an alkaline mixture to neutralize the level of acidity of the sulfide bearing material. The alkaline mixture of the present invention comprises highly reactive calcium oxide and lower reactive calcium carbonate. The user then combines the alkaline mixture with an adjuvant surfactant and water to generate a treatment mixture. The treatment mixture is applied to the sulfide bearing material, thereby eliminating acid generation.
