Geochemical characterisation of gold tailings footprints on the Central Rand Goldfield

Geochemical characterisation of gold tailings footprints on the Central Rand Goldfield

Gold mining in the Witwatersrand Basin of South Africa has resulted in soil contamination due to the lack of sufficient environmental management plans for the tailings dumps and remnant footprints. Tailings reclamation as a strategy of reducing pollution in the Central Rand, for instance, has result...
