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.

Mobilization of Metal(oid) Oxyanions through Circumneutral Mine Waste-Rock Drainage.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that oxyanion concentrations of environmental concern may be conveyed by neutral- to alkaline-pH waste-rock drainage and should be a focus of mine wastewater monitoring programs.
