Speciation of Cu, Zn and Cr in Excavated Fine Fraction of Waste at Two Landfills [PDF]
Mining landfills and open dumpsites is associated with (40-70% by mass) fine fraction of particle sizes less than 20 or 10 mm. Soil and trace elements of considerable concentrations typically dominate the composition of this fraction.
