Lead mineral transformation by fungi

Pyromorphite (Pb5(PO4)3Cl), the most stable lead mineral under a wide range of geochemical conditions [1], can form in urban and industrially contaminated soils [2–5]. It has been suggested that the low solubility of this mineral could reduce the bioavailability of lead, and several studies have adv...
