About this document

Phytoremediation of Mining Tailings by Stalin Rojas Caro is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses using arbuscular mycorrhizas for phytostabilization of uranium in mining tailings. Phytostabilization involves reducing the mobility of heavy metals in soil using plants. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi form beneficial relationships with plant roots and may help uptake and translocation of uranium. Further research is needed to identify plant species and host-fungus combinations most effective for phytoremediation of uranium tailings to minimize environmental impacts of mining.
