EARTHWORM (EISENIA FETIDA) BIOASSAY TO ASSESS THE POSSIBLE EFFECTS OF PLATINUM TAILINGS DISPOSAL FACILITIES ON THE ENVIRONMENT ALONG A GRADIENT (2007)
Platinum mines produce large amounts of inorganic tailings containing high levels of metals which are disposed of on tailings disposal facilities (TDFs) and there is no information available on their possible effects on the surrounding terrestrial environment. The aim of this study was to do an earthworm bioassay of soils along a gradient from a TDF over a period of 28 days in terms of growth, reproduction and metal accumulation.
