Emissions from metal mining activities are known to deteriorate the quality of aquatic habitats and impair the condition and reproductive potential of fish. Metal extraction by biomining methods has been considered to cause fewer emissions, but for example in Finland, the impacts of a bioheapleaching technology utilizing metal mine on the local freshwaters have been substantial. In this thesis, the impacts of the bioheapleaching mine emissions on three native fish species, brown trout (Salmo trutta) European perch (Perca fluviatilis) and whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus pallasi), were investigated. Manganese and sulphate concentrations have been elevated in the mining impacted waters, and in our laboratory experiment with whitefish early life stages, a continuous exposure to manganese sulphate increased the early life stage mortality and impaired the larval growth and yolk consumption. In addition, the tolerance of the whitefish early life stages to manganese sulphate varied among the female parents, and the tolerance also seemed to be linked to larval metallothionein messenger RNA induction. In the long-term in situ egg incubation experiment, however, no mining impact related effect on brown trout and whitefish embryonic mortality or growth was observed. Although low water pH increased the embryonic mortality of both species, the low water pH was characteristic to the waterbodies at the study region in general. With wild male perch, the liver and testes size were lower in the mining impacted study lakes, indicating lower energy resources compared to the males from the reference lakes. The perch from the mining impacted lakes also had lower sperm counts, which seemed to have been compensated by elongated sperm motility. These results suggested that the condition and reproductive potential of fish may have been compromised in the bioheapleaching mine impacted lakes. ...

  • Aquatic effects and risk assessment of multi-metal leachates from metal mining and acid sulphate soils 

    Wallin, Jaana (Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2018)
    Leachates and effluents from acid sulphate soils and metal mining compose a significant part of metal and sulphate loads into aquatic environments in Finland. Acid sulphate soils have deteriorated the water systems of ...
  • Toxicity of biomining effluents to Daphnia magna : Acute toxicity and transcriptomic biomarkers 

    Sivula, Leena; Vehniäinen, Eeva-Riikka; Karjalainen, Anna; Kukkonen, Jussi (Pergamon Press, 2018)
    Increasing metal consumption is driving the introduction of new techniques such as biomining to exploit low grade ores. The biomining impacts notably aquatic ecosystems, yet, the applicability of ecotoxicological tests to ...
  • Toxicity of Mining-Contaminated Lake Sediments to Lumbriculus variegatus 

    Wallin, Jaana; Karjalainen, Juha; Väisänen, Ari; Karjalainen, Anna K. (Springer, 2021)
    Boreal lakes with soft water and low buffering capacity are susceptible to excess ion loading resulting from metal mining. The impact of two Finish mining sites in downstream lakes was assessed with a chronic sediment ...
  • Sulfate toxicity to early life stages of European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus) in soft freshwater 

    Karjalainen, Juha; Mäkinen, Mikko; Karjalainen, Anna K. (Elsevier, 2021)
    Sulfate occurs naturally in the aquatic environment but its elevated levels can be toxic to aquatic life in freshwater environments. We investigated the toxicity of sulfate in humic, soft freshwater to whitefish (Coregonus ...
  • Genetic diversity of a clonal earthworm : gene expression variation and impacts on decomposition in metal contaminated soil 

    Mustonen, Marina (University of Jyväskylä, 2016)
    Biodiversity affects ecosystem functioning positively. Metal-contamination diminishes species diversity and ecosystem function depends on the remaining species, and the genotypes within them. I studied how the clonally ...
