The chemical partitioning of elements was conducted by a six-step sequential extraction scheme developed for Te-rich materials. The results showed high pseudototal concentrations of heavy metals (up to 3249 mgL1 Pb, 1670 mgL1 Zn and 625 mgL1 Cu). A large proportion of these potentially toxic metals are easily mobilisable at the present acidic and oxidant conditions, because most of them are bound to soluble and/or exchangeable phases (up to 84% Pb) and oxidisable phases (up to 91%Zn, 83% Cd and 71% Cu) ofthe wastes}, keywords = {Saltmarsh}, keywords = {Mine wastes}, keywords = {Sequential extraction}, keywords = {Metals}, keywords = {Te phases}, title = {Fraccionamiento de Fe y metales pesados en un deposito incontrolado de residuos mineros del paraje natural Estero Domingo Rubio (Huelva)}, title = {Fractionation ofFe and heavymetals in abandoned mine wastes at the Estero Domingo Rubio (Huelva)}, author = {Barba Brioso, Cinta and Otero, Xose L. and Fernández Caliani, Juan Carlos and Delgado Rodríguez, Joaquín María and Macias, Felipe and Galán Huertos, Emilio}, }
