Abstract
⺠Our samples are the first trace metal concentrations taken from the valley of Beaufort's Dyke. ⺠There is no clear trend between concentrations of trace metals in Dyke and NMMP sediments. ⺠Particle transport simulations show dispersal of trace metals from Beaufort's Dyke is possible. ⺠Disposed ordnance may also contribute to contamination of surrounding areas. ⺠These methods could help predict areas at risk of future trace metal contamination as a result of ordnance disposal.
