Abstract
The biogeochemistry of acid mine drainage (AMD) derived from waste rock associated sulphide mineral oxidation is relatively well characterized and linked to Acidithiobacillus spp.. However, little is understood about the microbial communities and sulphur cycling before AMD develops, key component on its prevention. This study aimed to examine circum-neutral mining impacted water (MIW) communities and its laboratory enrichments for sulphur...
