Differences in elemental composition of tailings, soils, and plant tissues following five decades of native plant colonization on a gold mine site in Northwestern Québec
Abstract
Mining activities have significant environmental impacts, such as the production of acid mine drainage and the typical absence of vegetation on mine tailings whose absence can facilitate the migration of metals to adjacent ecosystems. We investigated the metal and metalloid composition of plants and substrates on, and near a former gold mine site to understand elemental dynamics in such environments. A mine tailings deposit rich in Mo and As in...
