Environmental consequences of sulphide-ore tailing disposal in freshwater bodies: A case study of Storavatnet at Litlabø, western Norway

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: At Litlabø in western Norway, sulphide-ore tailings from Stordø Kisgruber were deposited directly into the Litlabø Basin of lake Storavatnet between 1912 and 1968. In this study water column samples and sediment cores from Storavatnet were investigated to evaluate the environmental impact of this water-covered tailings deposit and unveil the controlling (bio)geochemical processes. The results […]
