Abstract

Nantymwyn Lead Mine has substantial subterranean workings, surface mine waste tips, collapsed adits and two streams which cross the workings and waste. One of >1,300 abandoned metal mines in Wales, it causes elevated levels of lead and zinc in the streams, and in flora and fauna near the mine sit...
