Metal Dispersion Resulting from Mining Activities in Coastal Environments: A Pathways Approach
Acid rock drainage (ARD) and disposal of tailings that result from mining activities impact coastal areas in many countries. The dispersion of metals from mine sites that are both proximal and distal to the shoreline can be examined using a pathways approach in which physical and chemical processes...
