Scientists Develop Enzyme to Limit Environmental Impact of Mine Waste, Testing Underway

Reported byArizona State University ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

ASU researchers led by Hamed Khodadadi Tirkolaei are testing an enzyme-based treatment at the abandoned Cash Mine near Prescott, Arizona, that stabilizes mining waste, prevents contaminants from reaching waterways, and can be deployed on-site without specialized equipment.

Worth noting

This is an early-stage field trial; scaling to broader mine remediation would require further testing.
