Article Synopsis
- The study examines the impact of ion-adsorption rare earth element (REE) mining on water systems in South China, focusing on the sources and behavior of REEs in groundwater and surface water.
- The concentration of REEs decreased from upstream to downstream, with specific transformations noted in the types of REE colloids present in the water as it flows through the mining area.
- Findings show that mining activities significantly influence the distribution and speciation of REEs, as indicated by the anomalies in certain REEs, revealing both their origins and changes through various hydrological processes.
