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.

Evaluating dual-domain models for upscaling multicomponent reactive transport in mine waste rock.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the ability of dual-domain multicomponent reactive transport models (DDMRTMs) to reproduce breakthrough curves of conservative (chloride) and reactive (molybdenum) solutes observed at a well-characterized experimental waste-rock pile at the Antamina Mine, Peru.

Advances in the Management of the Neglected Oxyanions (Antimoniate, Borates, Carbonates, and Molybdate) in Aqua System

TL;DR: The need for the removal of contaminants from the aqueous environments cannot be overemphasised as mentioned in this paper, because of the significant threats they pose to the health and consequently the well-being of both man and other living creatures.

Transfer of Nutrient and Harmful Elements from Soil to Rice and Health Risk Assessments for the Vietnamese Population

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the transfer of harmful elements from soil into rice and health risk assessment for the Vietnamese population, and found that As, Cd, and Pb are the riskiest pollutants in rice.

Molybdenum Release Triggered by Dolomite Dissolution: Experimental Evidence and Conceptual Model

TL;DR: In this article , the authors studied the processes controlling MAR-induced molybdenum (Mo) release in dolomitic aquifers. And they found that the type and time of batch solution contact with the sulfurized organic matter impacted the release of Mo, as demonstrated by a 36% increase in Mo concentrations when shaking was intensified.

Enrichment mechanisms of Mo in soil in the karst region Guangxi, China.

TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper analyzed data from the 1:50,000 geochemical survey in Guangxi, including 536,503 sets of soil data and 3043 sets of carbonate rock-soil from typical karst regions.

User's guide to PHREEQC (Version 2)-a computer program for speciation, batch-reaction, one-dimensional transport, and inverse geochemical calculations

TL;DR: PHREEQC as discussed by the authors is a C program written in the C programming language that is designed to perform a wide variety of low-temperature aqueous geochemical calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of the source, behaviour and distribution of arsenic in natural waters

TL;DR: The scale of the problem in terms of population exposed to high As concentrations is greatest in the Bengal Basin with more than 40 million people drinking water containing ‘excessive’ As as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abundance of chemical elements in the continental crust: a new table

TL;DR: In this article, a table of element abundances in the continental crust, calculated on the basis of a 1:1 mixture of granite and basalt abundances, is presented.
