Abstract
The effect of seepage from a gold mine slime dam on the levels of trace heavy metals in a nearby receiving stream and dam were studied between 1993 and 1995. The heavy metals studied include Cd, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Pb, Ag, Cu, Zn and Cr. The major cations Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, the SO4 2‐ anion, pH, alkalinity, and hardness were also determined. The results obtained confirm that seepage from the slime dam has a very strong influence on the levels of dissolved trace heavy metals in the stream and dam.
