Funded Activity Summary

Interactions between antimony and the sulphur cycle. This project aims to unravel unexplored interactions between the sulphur cycle and fundamentally important aspects of antimony geochemistry in the Earth’s critical zone. This project will resolve interactions between antimony geochemistry and the low-temperature formation and transformation of metastable iron sulphide minerals. The outcomes are expected to provide crucially important perspectives on antimony geochemistry in anoxic soils, sediments and groundwater systems. This understanding should lead to more accurate geochemical risk assessments and better site treatment strategies for environmental antimony contamination.
