Short articles summarize environmental geochemical studies of metallic mineral deposits in Alaska, including massive sulfide, gold, mercury, chromium, and uranium mines and deposits. The studies report metal and acid concentrations in samples collected around such mines and deposits, and evaluate environmental effects of the deposits. The articles are written in a style intended to reach a general audience.
