    Abstract : Oxidation of sulfidic mine waste is of significant environmental concern due to the consequent formation of acid rock drainage (ARD), deteriorating the water quality of natural water systems. Iron (Fe) and sulfur (S) are two major redox elements involved in these reactions and typically the major redox-sensitive elements (whose solubility, speciation, and mobility are affected by pH and Eh) in water affected by ARD.
