Lead and zinc were mined in the Tri-State Mining District (TSMD) of southwest Missouri, northeast Oklahoma, and southeast Kansas for more than 100 years. The effects of mining on the landscape are still evident, nearly 50 years after the last mine ceased operation. The legacies of mining are the mine waste and discharge of groundwater from underground mines. The mine-waste piles and underground mines are continuous sources of trace metals (primarily lead, zinc, and cadmium) to the streams that drain the TSMD. Many previous studies characterized the horizontal extent of mine-waste contamination in streams but little information exists on the depth of mine-waste contamination in these streams. Characterizing the vertical...

Concentrations of major and trace elements as determined by chemical analysis of the less than 2-millimeter size fraction of bed-sediment and floodplain samples in the Tri-State Mining District, 2011-12. All samples were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey. Analysis was conducted by the USGS Central Mineral and Environmental Resources Science Center laboratory in Denver, Colorado using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry methods described in Taggart (2002) as referenced in the associated report. Table Contents: Core_identifier, Depth_1, Depth_2, Site_Identifier, Arsenic, Cadmium, Barium, Cobalt, Copper, Nickel, Magnesium, Lead, Zinc, Aluminum,...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Data Release contains locations and concentrations of metals in various size fractions in floodplain-core, streambed-sediment samples, and sediment deposited on the flood plain from the December 2015 flood and underlying soils collected from along the Middle Big River and tributaries in the Southeast Missouri Barite District from 2012 to 2015. All samples were analyzed either by inductively-coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) or x-ray fluorescence (XRF). Concentrations of metals in quality-assurance samples are also presented to evaluate the effect of sample splitting and compare the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and USGS Missouri Water Science Center XRF units....

Sampled depth intervals and selected trace element concentrations as determined by X-ray fluorescence analysis of the intact floodplain cores in the Tri-State Mining District, 2011-12. All samples were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey using conventional coring methods with the exception of cores SH-FB-1 and SH-FB-4 which were collected using a plastic scoop; analysis was conducted using an x -ray fluorescence instrument owned and operated by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service personnel following the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency Method 6200 (EPA, 2007) at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and U.S. Geological Survey offices.
