Deterioration mechanisms of pre-holed sandstone under freeze–thaw cycling in a tailings-water environment: Microstructural evolution, energy response, and failure behavior

Sandstone surrounding tailings facilities in cold regions may be subjected simultaneously to freeze–thaw cycling and chemically active seepage water. This study investigated the deterioration of pre-holed sandstone continuously immersed in field-collected tailings water under 0-9...
