Acid mine drainage (AMD) occurs after mining exposes metal sulfides to oxidizing
conditions. Leaching of reaction products into surface waters pollute over 20,000 km of …

When appropriately designed and maintained, passive systems can provide long-term,
efficient, and effective treatment for many acid mine drainage (AMD) sources. Passive AMD …

Water is needed at mine sites for dust suppression, mineral processing, coal washing, and
hydrometallurgical extraction. For these applications, water is mined from surface water …

Thallium is a non essential and highly toxic metal listed by USEPA and the European Water
Framework Directive as a priority pollutant. It is present in the environment mainly as Tl (I) …

The frequent occurrence of thallium (Tl) in surface water has led to the imposition of strict

In this study, we assessed past and present influence of ancient mining activity on metal
(loid) enrichment in sediments of a former mining watershed (Gardon River, SE France), that …

Sampling and analysis of groundwater and surface water were conducted to assess the
potential impacts of abandoned mines on water quality in a karst area in Southern France …

The feeding activity and afterward the assimilation of the products resulting of the food
digestion, allow organisms to obtain energy useful for growth, maintenance and …

Metal mobilization from sediments in streams, which are severely impacted by the acid mine
drainage (AMD), around Makum coalfield in North-eastern India was studied. Sediments in …
