Geochemical characterization of the mining waste and superficial water of the abandoned mining Jornune (Lampa Mining)

This article aims to analyze the geochemistry of mining waste from the abandoned mine Jornune (Lampa Mining), located in the district of Cabanillas, province of Lampa, in the region of Puno. For this purpose, samples of surface water, groundwater, mineral waste, river sediments and precipitates were taken from a source in the zone in contact with the mining residue, from which the chemical concentrations of the following chemical elements: Ag, Al, As, Ba, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Th, Tl, U, V y Zn.
