Article Synopsis
- Heavy metal contamination from gold mining processes harms the environment, necessitating efforts to reduce their levels, especially in areas like Ilesha, Nigeria.
- Water and soil samples showed varying concentrations of heavy metals, with cobalt (Co) being the most prevalent in both, followed by others like zinc (Zn) and lead (Pb).
- Bacteria capable of resisting high concentrations of heavy metals were identified, and the presence of heavy metal-resistant genes indicates potential for bioremediation strategies in contaminated areas.
