Evaluation of the Potential of Indigenous Calcareous Shale for Neutralization and Removal of Arsenic and Heavy Metals From Acid Mine Drainage in the Taxco Mining Area, Mexico

In the Taxco mining area, sulfide mineral oxidation from inactive tailings impoundments and abandoned underground mines has produced acid mine drainage (AMD; pH 2.2-2.9) enriched in dissolved concentrations (mg l⁻¹) sulfate, heavy metals, and arsenic (As): SO₄ ²⁻ (pH 1470-5454), zinc (Zn; 3.0-859),...
