Spatial Distribution of Mercury and Potentially Toxic Elements in Soils from an Agricultural and Grazing Area Affected by Historical Mining
Historical mining districts are long-term sources of environmental contamination, especially where agriculture and grazing occur near mining areas. This study evaluates mercury (Hg) and other potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in soils from Solana de Peñarrubia, within the Almadén mining district (Spain). Thirty-four so...
