The characteristics of the beaches from this research study were compared with other flume deposition test results performed using a variety of tailings materials. A good correlation exists between flume deposition test results using oil sand tailings and the various other tailings materials, especially those with appreciable fines contents with respect to parameters that govern beach slope. These comparisons show the reliability and effectiveness of flume deposition tests in terms of establishing general relationships and can serve as a guide to predict beach slopes.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Athabasca Oil Sands Region (AOSR)</style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/5140501795</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OSEMB</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
