Primary Phases and Natural Weathering of Smelting Slag at an Abandoned Mine Site in Southwest Japan
Artisanal metallurgical slag produced more than 50 years ago at a mine site in southwest Japan is rich in toxic metals and metalloids. Some of the slag remains on a waste dump and could contaminate the surrounding area through the dissolution of heavy metals and metalloids during weathering. To asse...
