Mineralogical Associations of Sedimentary Arsenic within a Contaminated Aquifer Determined through Thermal Treatment and Spectroscopy

Sedimentary arsenic (As) in the shallow aquifers of Bangladesh is enriched in finer-grained deposits that are rich in organic matter (OM), clays, and iron (Fe)-oxides. In Bangladesh, sediment color is a useful indicator of pore water As concentrations. The pore waters of orange sediments are usually...
