The city says it will have a fix in place to stop troubling contaminants from leaking into the water and soil around the Hamilton airport by the end of the month.
The John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport is contaminated with perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a now-banned chemical once found in firefighting foam. The PFOS came from a firefighter training pad in the 1980s, but the chemical was later found to cause birth defects and slow physical development in some animals.

The mine held its official inauguration recently.
As the first electric mine in the world, it features “state-of-the-art” health and safety controls, digital mining technologies and processes and low-carbon energy vehicles.

The Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks has advised Public Health Sudbury and Districts that results from samples taken recently from Wabagishik Lake and Nepewassi Lake are positive for blue-green algae (cyanobacteria).
Algal blooms could also appear in other parts of the lakes. Because blooms are not anchored, they can move from one location to another.

In the early 1990s, local mining companies began to devise strategies to reclaim Sudbury's typical black rock landscape.
Vale discovered that aerial seeding was particularly effective to revegetate historically stressed land in remote areas of the Sudbury basin. Eventually, their efforts developed into Vale's modern Aerial Seeding Program which will take place this year between Sept. 24 and Oct. 1, in Sudbury's east end in the community of Consiton.

There's another sinkhole in Oxford, N.S., but this one is under the highway.
CBC News has collected aerial images from eight decades, dating back to the 1930s. The images are from the National Air Photo Library, an archive managed by Natural Resources Canada.
The library has more than six million aerial photographs, forming a quilt of coast-to-coast snapshots.
By watching the same spot, year after year, it's clear the Trans-Canada Highway was built over a sinkhole.

Jean Caron digs his fingers into the rich, crumbly soil of Denys Van Winden’s 242-hectare vegetable farm, 55 kilometres south of Montreal.
“This is what black earth looks like,” he says.
“It’s ideal soil, easy to work. The yield is significantly greater,” says Caron, a professor of soil physics at Laval University who holds an industrial research chair in soil conservation from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC).

A PhD student at the University of Alberta discovered a new mineral inside a diamond recovered from a mine in South Africa.
The mineral is named goldschmidtite in honour of Victor Moritz Goldschmidt, the founder of modern geochemistry. According to Nicole Meyer, the graduate student in the Diamond Exploration Research and Training School that discovered the rock, it has an unusual chemical signature for a mineral from Earth’s mantle.

The biggest volcano on Jupiter's moon Io could be about to blow. Decades of observation have revealed a periodic cycle in the volcano's eruptions; according to past behaviour, it's due for the next one any day. That potential burst of activity — or lack thereof — could help us to better understand the volcano and Io itself, the most volcanically active object in the Solar System.
