A city of the Yukon Territory and its capital since 1953, located at kilometre 1476, just off the Alaska Highway. The city lies mainly on the western side of the Yukon River, nestled in a protected valley surrounded by Canyon Mountain(locally known as Grey Mountain) to the east, Haeckel Hill to the northwest and Golden Horn Mountain to the south. Located at the head of navigation on the Yukon River, Whitehorse grew significantly by becoming a temporary stopping point--past two major obstacles on the river, Miles Canyon and the Whitehorse Rapids--for prospectors heading for Dawson(then known as "Dawson City") during the Klondike Gold Rush Years(1897-1899). In 1900, with the completion of the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway from Skagway in Alaska, to Carcross and Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory, the community grew around the point where the railway and river met, on the western side of the Yukon River. After the gold rush, Whitehorse's population dropped, but with the help of navigation and aviation companies, the British Yukon Navigation Company building riverboats and operating them to Dawson until 1954, and the British Yukon Aviation Company transporting mail, freight and passengers, the economy was kept afloat. During World War II, Whitehorse played a significant role as a key link in the north-south transportation system, hosting the Americans and Canadians in charge of expanding the air link that was the Northwest Staging Route(a series of airfields across the Northwest), building the 2300-km Alaska Highway, or constructing the Canol Pipeline from Norman Wells, N. W. T., and an oil refinery at Whitehorse. In 1950, Whitehorse was incorporated as a city. In 1953, the territorial capital of the Yukon was moved from Dawson to Whitehorse, adding the government sector to an economy made of the mining(copper, silver and lead-zinc), tourist and oil industries. Though the mines shut down in Yukon and the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway ended its operations 2, record 5, English, - Whitehorse

Ville du Territoire du Yukon qui en est aussi la capitale depuis 1953, située au kilomètre 1476, près de la route de l'Alaska. On l'appelle communément «la ville de Whitehorse», bien qu'elle ait le statut de cité en raison de son caractère politique et historique et de l'importance de sa population. La ville s'étend surtout du côté ouest du fleuve Yukon, blottie dans une vallée protégée, entourée de la montagne Canyon (appelée «Grey» dans la région) à l'est, la colline Haeckel au nord-ouest et la montagne Golden Horn au sud. Sise là où commence la navigation sur le fleuve Yukon, Whitehorse s'est développée de façon significative en devenant un arrêt d'étape --une fois franchis les deux obstacles principaux sur le fleuve, le canyon Miles et les rapides Whitehorse-- pour les prospecteurs en route pour Dawson (alors appelée à l'américaine, «Dawson City») pendant les années de la ruée vers l'or du Klondike (1897-1899). Avec la fin de la construction du chemin de fer White Pass and Yukon Route Railway depuis Skagway (Alaska) à Carcross puis Whitehorse (Territoire du Yukon) en 1900, la communauté s'est développée au point de rencontre entre le fleuve et le chemin de fer, sur la rive ouest du fleuve Yukon. Une fois la ruée vers l'or terminée, la population de Whitehorse chute, mais avec l'aide des compagnies de navigation et d'aviation, la British Yukon Navigation Company qui construit des bateaux à aubes et en gère les opérations jusqu'à Dawson jusqu'en 1954, et la British Yukon Aviation Company qui transporte du courrier, des marchandises et des passagers, l'économie de la ville demeure viable. Au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Whitehorse joue un rôle important comme point de liaison pour les opérations de transport dans l'axe nord-sud, hébergeant les Américains et les Canadiens chargés d'accroître les liaisons aériennes de la Northwest Staging Route (une série de terrains d'aviation dans le Nord-Ouest) ou de construire les 230 kilomètres de la 2, record 5, French, - Whitehorse

White Pass and Yukon Railway, at 175 km long, was the steepest pitched railway in Canada. Work began in 1898, at the height of the Klondike Gold Rush, to provide transportation from Skagway, Alaska, to Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. Building of the narrow gauge railway was an extremely difficult engineering feat, requiring extensive blasting, tunnels and precarious bridging. Thirty-five of the 35 000 men who worked on construction were killed. The summit of White Pass was reached in February 1899 and the "last spike" was driven at Carcross on 29 July 1900. The gold was exhausted by the time work was complete, though the line struggled along carrying passengers and freight. The mining boom in the Yukon revived the railway, as lead-zinc was hauled from Faro, Mayo and Clinton Creek. The shutdown of the WP&Y in 1982, as a result of the collapse of the mining boom, deprived Whitehorse of some employment and its sea rail link. 1, record 6, English, - White%20Pass%20%26%20Yukon%20Route%20Railway

D'une longueur de 175 km, il s'agissait du chemin de fer le plus escarpé au Canada. Sa construction débute en 1898, à l'apogée de la ruée vers l'or du Klondike, afin de relier Skagway, en Alaska, et Whitehorse, au Yukon. La construction de cette voie étroite est un véritable exploit d'ingénierie. Les travaux nécessitent d'importants dynamitages et la construction de tunnels et de pontages précaires. Trente-cinq des 35 000 hommes qui y sont engagés périssent sur le chantier. Le sommet du col White est atteint en février 1899 et le dernier crampon est enfoncé à Carcross le 29 juillet 1900, mais les réserves d'or de la région sont déjà épuisées. Le chemin de fer survit tout de même en transportant des voyageurs et des marchandises. L'essor minier au Yukon ravive la voie ferrée qui sert au transport du plomb et du zinc en provenance de Faro, Mayo et Clinton Creek. Le déclin de l'industrie minière entraîne la fermeture du White Pass and Yukon Railway en 1982 et prive Whitehorse d'un certain nombre d'emplois ainsi que de son lien entre transports maritime et ferroviaire. 1, record 6, French, - White%20Pass%20%26%20Yukon%20Route%20Railway

As the richer ores of gold(and other metals) are depleted, it is necessary for mining companies to focus on low-grade refractory gold-bearing ores in which the gold is encapsulated in the crystal structure of a sulphide matrix(typically pyrite). These ores cannot be broken down by cyanidation without an oxidative pre-treatment such as nitric acid oxidation, roasting, pressure oxidation or biological oxidation using microorganisms. Biological oxidation is currently achieved in slurry bioreactors which have certain disadvantages. 4, record 15, English, - bio%2Doxidation

La contribution de la biotechnologie à une production plus propre dans le secteur minier touche principalement l'extraction des métaux que contiennent divers types de minerais au moyen de techniques de biolixiviation ou de biooxydation, et la prévention du drainage minier acide (DMA). Comme la biolixiviation et l'oxydation biologique s'effectuent surtout à température et pression ambiantes ou peu élevées, la réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre et les économies potentielles d'énergie qu'elles génèrent sont plus faibles comparativement au grillage et à la fusion, qui sont des procédés de traitement à haute température. 4, record 15, French, - bio%2Doxydation

For example, sodium or potassium phosphide release phosphine gas when they contact water. Alkali metal cyanide salts, such as sodium or potassium cyanide, slowly release deadly hydrogen cyanide gas on contact with water. 2, record 22, English, - cyanide%20gas

A respondent described the application of bioleaching in the mining industry and noted some of the cost issues and environmental precautions.... For low-grade refractory gold ores, the technology involves bacterial breakdown of arsenopyrite ore to expose the gold followed by cyaniding for extraction purposes. A major environmental health issue here revolves on the control of acidity in the ore pile to eliminate the production of cyanide gas. 3, record 22, English, - cyanide%20gas

As the richer ores of gold(and other metals) are depleted, it is necessary for mining companies to focus on low-grade refractory gold-bearing ores in which the gold is encapsulated in the crystal structure of a sulphide matrix(typically pyrite).

Traitement en autoclave. La majeure partie du minerai de la propriété Goldstrike est «réfractaire» et contient de l'or enfermé dans des minéraux sulfurés. La présence de sulfure diminue l'efficacité de la lixiviation au cyanure et réduit considérablement la récupération d'or à partir de ces minerais. Pour améliorer la récupération, le minerai réfractaire est soumis à un traitement supplémentaire entre les circuits de broyage et de lixiviation, soit l'oxydation sous pression («traitement en autoclave»), afin d'oxyder les minéraux sulfurés. Cette méthode améliore le taux de récupération d'or, qui passe d'environ 30 % avant l'oxydation à plus de 90 % après celle-ci. 1, record 23, French, - oxydation%20sous%20pression

In the early days of lode gold mining, stamp mills were used for crushing the ore. Where there was free gold in the ore, a silver-plated copper plate was placed so that the discharge through the screen from the mortar, with the addition of water, flowed down over this plate which was coated with quicksilver, allowing the free gold to become amalgamated and retained to the plate. The man who operated such a mill was called an amalgamator. 4, record 25, English, - amalgamator
