The production of this Global Acid Rock Drainage Guide (GARD Guide) was made possible through financial contributions from the International Network on Acid Production (INAP) and the Mining Association of Canada (MAC). The project was developed and initiated by INAP in partnership with the Global Alliance.

Several organizations and many individuals contributed to the development of this GARD Guide. Golder Associates Ltd assembled a team that developed this version of the GARD Guide with the assistance and contributions from INAP member companies and consultants. INAP would like to thank all that contributed to the Guide.
