Iron is considered to be one of the most unstable minerals in our ground water supply. As water percolates through the ground strata it dissolves the iron from the iron ore deposits as ferrous bicarbonate [Fe (HCO3)2 ], sometimes referred to as "clear water iron." When iron is dissolved in water you cannot see it.

The copper and uranium, iron and phosphate industries are also highly regionalized occurring predominately in the Southwest, Minnesota, and Florida, respectively. As a result, approximately 75 percent of all mining wastes generated in the metal-ore and non-metal mineral mining industries is generated in these same locations.

The environmental consequences of mining Iron Mountain became apparent only a few years after the start of open mining in 1896. Fish kills in 1902 in the Sacramento River, near the city of Redding, were the first documented effects, and shortly thereafter, several private lawsuits and an injunction from the U.S. Forest Reserve (precursor to the Forest Service) were served against Mountain ...

Former iron and steel works sites are significant in terms of their size, number, degree of contamination, and their wide distribution in the United Kingdom. They are likely to have become chemically contaminated with a wide range of substances from the manufacture of iron and steel, and the many associated processes. Associated processes include coke-production, metal refining and finishing.

Iron in water has many effects on aquatic life, both good and bad. Iron (Fe) occurs naturally in water at a rate of roughly 1-3 parts per billion (ppb) in ocean water, about 1 part per million (ppm) in river water and 100ppm in groundwater. Iron comes from various minerals in the soil, which is why ...
