(AP) Cleanup of the old Idarado Mine toxic waste dumps covering 150 acres has utilized massive composting com-posting and planting of grasses and flowers to stabilize the heavy-metal-laced tailings. The $20 million cleanup of Newmont's "" Idarado Mine involves revegetating six large waste piles, two just above Telluride and four on the other side of the San Juan Mountains, south of Ouray. The mine includes a 100-mile honeycomb of tunnels in the mountains separating the two towns. Lime was mixed into the tailings tail-ings to reduce acidity. One tailings pile required 286 tons of lime for each acre. Each acre of tailings had 40 tons of dry cow manure and another 20 tons of straw or hay tilled in. The areas were then seeded, fertilized and mulched. Knee-high grass and wildflow-ers wildflow-ers now blanket one 70-acre expanse on the edge of Telluride. The five-year effort has been done at a cost of about $20 million, mil-lion, one fourth of the original plan ordered by U.S. District Court in Denver after the state successfully -"sued Newmonf Mining Corp. under the federal Superfund Act. "It gives us an alternative for doing large-scale reclamation," said Ed Redente, the Colorado State University ecologist who helped design the plan. State and community leaders are pleased.

I "It's gone very well," agreed Elaine Fischer, Telluride's mayor? Newmont created the Idarado Mining Co. in 1939 to dig for cor per, lead and zinc beneath a silvey vein that had been mined in the last century. The Idarado mine halted operations oper-ations in1978 nd left behind 1 million tons Of toxic tailings and the vast network of mountain tuii-nels. tuii-nels. After the state won its suit, Newmont appealed the plan to build huge holding ponds and cover the tailings with four feet of dirt to the tune of $80 million. ; Later negotiations produced the "compost" cleanup plan launched in 1993. It was completed complet-ed last fall and officials now will monitor the success of the effort over the next dozen years. The aim is to reduce zinc levels by half in nearby creeks and rivers and ensure the grass and wild-flowers wild-flowers can make it own their own, without a helping hand from humans. Six tailings have been seeded with a dozen different grasses and wildflowers. The plan is designed to create a "vegetative cover" so the tailings won't be exposed to wind and water erosion. ; Nearly eight miles of concrete channels have been built to divert surface water and snow mejt away from toxic waste piles or into the abandoned mine tunnels.
