    • English
    Metallophytes in Mineral Mining offers a cutting-edge look at the emerging technology of phytomining (or agromining) for the farming of metals in metal-rich soils. Metallophytes-based mineral mining is a rapidly growing field due to its potential contribution to socio-economic and ecological sustainability. The authors begin with a thorough overview of metallophytes and the analysis of metal-rich soils. The following chapters look closely at phytomining versus phytoremediation, metal transporter in hyperaccumulator plants, and microbe-assisted phytomining. The authors also carefully consider the implications of conserving metallophytes biodiversity. Finally, several case studies of valuable metals in agromining round out the chapters. This pioneering text provides the latest work and perspectives on metallophytes in mineral mining and how it may support sustainability.
