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.

Assessment of Soil Pollution with Presumably Contaminating Elements in Moscow Recreational Areas Using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper , the mass fractions of 37 major and trace elements were determined using instrumental neutron activation analysis in soil samples collected at two different depths in the vicinity of more potential contamination sources.

Sequestration of Oxyanions of V(V), Mo(VI), and W(VI) Enhanced through Enzymatic Formation of Fungal Manganese Oxides

TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the role of BMO formation in sequestration processes for oxyanion species at circumneutral pH conditions and showed that BMO deposition in the presence of absorbent oxyanions provided a higher sequestration capacity than the preformed BMOs.

Global co-occurrences of multi-(emerging)-contaminants in the hotspots of arsenic polluted groundwater: a pattern of menace

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the global pattern of arsenic co-occurrence with inorganic and emerging contaminants and then explained the governing factors driving the situation, including weathering, redox conditions, recharge/pumping, and surface leaching.

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.

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.
