Arsenic: Environmental Geochemistry, Mineralogy, and Microbiology (Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry Book 79)

Environmental Mineralogy and Bio-Geochemistry of Arsenic provides a comprehensive understanding of arsenic geochemistry in the near-surface environment. Topics covered include the mineralogy, thermodynamics, geochemistry, analysis, microbiology, and bioavailability of arsenic, with emphasis on implications for arsenic toxicity, geochemistry in natural ground waters, and mine-associated impacts and possible mitigation options. This volume is useful for those seeking to understand arsenic geochemistry and biological interactions in the near-surface environment, Clay Minerals does not use an online manuscript tracking/submission system. as well those working for mining companies, the chemicals industry, NGO’s or government bodies concerned with reducing the impact of arsenic on the environment. With an **Impact Factor of 6.120** the series Reviews in Mineralogy & Geochemistry is number 1 in the category Mineralogy in the 2015 Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Report/Science Edition.
