Natural radioactivity and element characterization in pit lakes in Northern Sweden
(Plos, 2022)
Northern Sweden has been the object of intense metal mining in the last decades producing several water-filled open-pits, or pit lakes. Most of these pit lakes have been limed to maintain a good water quality and to prevent ...

226Ra, 210Po and lead isotopes in a pit lake water profile in Sweden
(Elsevier, 2020-11)
A pit lake arises as a consequence of anthropogenic activities in opencast mining areas. These water bodies may be enriched in hazardous stable contaminants and/or in naturally occurring radionuclides depending on the ...
