Heavy Minerals Distribution in the Recent Stream Sediments of Diyala River Basin/ Northeastern IRAQ [PDF]
Twenty one samples of stream sediments were collected from the Diyala River Basin (DRB), which represent one of three major tributaries of the Tigris River at northeastern Iraq. This study is concerned with the heavy minerals (HM) analysis in the + 63μ m

Soil heavy metal contamination and acid deposition: experimental approach on two forest soils in Hunan, Southern China [PDF]
In 1985, a tailing dam collapsed in Hunan province (southern China) leading to soil contamination by heavy metals from the tailings waste. Moreover, acid deposition becomes more and more serious in this area. In this context, two forest soils (a red soil
