Risk assessment using IEUBK model for the Naica mine tailings
Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.Abstract Mexico has a long history of mineral extraction, during which limited environmental regulations allowed the accumulation of toxic waste near communities, primarily in rural or undeveloped areas. Some of these toxic substances, such as lead, pose significant risks to vulnerable populations, particularly children aged 0 to 7 years.
