The Phosphorus and Sulphur Distribution and Culturable Bacterial In Time Chronosequence of Ex-Tin Mining Ponds

Abstract

The tin mining had caused ecological changes that can be occured to macro- and microecosystem. This article aims to study the pattern distribution of element of phosphorus (P) and sulphur (S) and also to identify culturable bacterial that were isolated form ex-tin mining ponds in time chronosequence. The elemets of P and S were detected by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and the bacterials was isolated in medium agar and biochemistry identification by microbact. The concentration of element of P and S showed the average of P concentration increased in time chronosequnce of ex-tin mining ponds, whereas the average of S concentration showed dynamic pattern. In ex-tin mining pond with age 15 years were P (67,44 mg.L-1) and S (386,125 mg.L-1). While, the culturable bacterials were Kurthia spp; Actinobacillus equuli; Bacillus amyloliquefaciens; Bacillus spp; Micrococcus sp; Enterobacter gergoviae; Veillonella sp; Enterobacter aerogenes; Moraxella bovis; Nitrobater spp; and Enterobacter agglomerans.
