mining, communities derive benefits from sustainable pit lake ecosystems.•An integrated …

Passive remediation of Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) is a popular technology under
development in current research. Roles of algae and fungi, the natural residents of AMD and …

Abstract Creating Lakes from Open Pit Mines: Processes and Considerations, Emphasis on
Northern Environments. This document summarizes the literature of mining pit lakes …

The diversity and biological characteristics of eukaryotic communities within acid mine
drainage (AMD) sites is less well studied than for prokaryotic communities. Furthermore, for …

Molybdenum (Mo) is a naturally-occurring trace element in drinking water. Most commonly,
molybdate anions (MoO 4 2-) are in well water and breast milk. In addition, it is used in …

Extreme environments may support communities of microalgae living at the limits of their
tolerance. It is usually assumed that these extreme environments are inhabited by …

Industrial wastewater may contain high molybdenum concentrations, making treatment
before discharge necessary. In this paper, the removal of molybdate anions from water is …

This paper aims at assessing the feasibility of suspended sediment concentration (SSC)
estimation by using predictor variables of heavy metal concentration (HMC, viz., iron …

Mine pit lakes may develop at mine closure when mining voids extend below groundwater
levels and fill with water. Acid and metalliferous drainage (AMD) and salinity are common …

Understanding long term water quality and ecological aspects of pit lakes is important in
understanding the risks and opportunities pit lakes present as mine closure legacies. Pit …
