TLDR
The 2011 WHO Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality (fourth edition) advised a health-based value of 70μg/L for Mo but this is no longer promulgated as a formal guideline value as WHO consider such concentrations to be rarely found in drinking water as discussed by the authors.

Celestine and powellite as redox indicators during diagenesis of molybdenum-bearing carbonate aquifers

TL;DR: The mineralogy and chemistry of a molybdenum-bearing carbonate aquifer matrix of Eocene age from Central Florida were investigated in this paper , where the mineral powellite (CaMoO4) was the main Mo phase in two samples.

Trace elements in natural water : the impact on quality, food preparation and production.

TL;DR: In this paper, the levels of arsenic (total and species) and other trace elements in natural waters of Argentina were analyzed using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) with an added palladium chemical modifier.

Occurrence, reaction and transport behavior of cadmium in groundwater

TL;DR: In this article, a broad overview of the origin and concentration of Cadmium in groundwater, and its reaction pathways in aquatic environments is presented, along with several cases of Cd pollution in soil and groundwater based on worldwide accounts.

The composition of the continental crust

TL;DR: In this paper, a new calculation of the crustal composition is based on the proportions of upper crust (UC) to felsic lower crust (FLC) to mafic lower-crust (MLC) of about 1.6:0.4.
