Use of Geohydrological Controls to Tackle Geogenic Arsenic Contamination of Hard Rock Aquifer: A Case Study from Central India
Abstract: AbstractArsenic poisoning of potable groundwater is considered one of the most severe health hazard in recent years. Reporting of high geogenic arsenic contamination in groundwater is increasing day by day within the country. The hydrothermal phase following the batholithic intrusion is responsible for sulfide mineralization and related enrichment of Arsenic (As) concentration in the granite-meta rhyolite rocks along the Kotri lineament of central India. Isolated clusters of high As groundwater …
