Geochemistry and mineralogy of Cobalt in mine wastes: examples from Cobalt, Canada and Cornwall, England

Geochemistry and mineralogy of Cobalt in mine wastes: examples from Cobalt, Canada and Cornwall, England

Mine wastes can pose environmental and human health risks, especially when they contain high concentrations of potentially toxic metal(loid)s. In this study, the geochemistry (bulk and sequential extraction analysis, paste pH) and mineralogy (X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electron...
