Risk assessment of heavy metal contamination in agricultural sites and river sediments at the Vatukoula gold mine, Fiji Islands

2022-01-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>A comprehensive study was conducted to explore the concentration and distribution of heavy metals in farm soils and river sediments around a gold mining area in Fiji with particular emphasis on ecological and human health risks. Representative samples were acquired from farm sites in Matanagata Village and the Nasivi river, both situated around the Vatukoula gold mine limited (VGML), th...
