The compendium of Hanford site sediment mineralogy data provided in this report was initiated in 2012 to support flux mitigation technologies and real-time monitoring that could limit contaminant fluxes to the groundwater in the Central Plateau. Recent efforts in advancing spectral induced polarization as a method for monitoring contaminant transformations for active biogeochemical remedies have underscored the need for a published compendium of sediment characterization data. Although the data are primarily focused on the mineralogical composition of Hanford sediments, other soil measurements such as particle size distribution such as particle size distribution and carbon content are provided. The data have been reproduced from the original reports and are provided here for information only (FIO).
