Potential anthropogenic mobilization of mercury and arsenic from soils on mineralized rocks, Northland, New Zealand
Article Abstract:
The study examined environmental metal mobility and acid rock drainage in some fossil hot springs systems that contain elevated arsenic and mercury but no elevated base metal concentrations. The results indicate that both arsenic and mercury are least mobile in acid soils, at pH of c. 3-4.
