abstract = {Environmental impacts of mining activities are well known, particularly on-site degradation, but long term effects are less known. Mercury content from vegetation samples from a mine dump and surrounding forests was quantified for understanding the fate of this element in the local the environment. The study area, Tlalpujahua, Michoacán, México, has a mining history going back more than 400 years. Including gold and silver extraction by means of mercury amalgamation for 352 years (1554–1906). Mercury was present in all sampled materials. The highest values correspond to wood samples from the mine dump (13.84 ± 3.88 ppm), while wood samples from adjacent forests had 4.3 ± 2.4 ppm, almost twice as much as coniferous needles, shrub leaves and corn seeds (2.2 ± 0.34 ppm). The highest concentration was found for J. deppeana wood (16.05 ± 2.3 ppm). The capacity of accumulating mercury by Juniperus trees when growing on the mine dumps suggests that this species has a potential to be used for biosequestration purposes.},
