Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The oxidation of sulfide minerals is of central importance due to the acid mine drainage (AMD) production. The bio-oxidation of pyrrhotite, pyrite, marcasite, and arsenopyrite was carried out with mesophilic bacteria ( Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, A. thiooxidans, and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans ) at 34 °C for 30 days. Bio-oxidation tests showed that marcasite has a high potential in producing AMD compared to pyrrhotite. Arsenopyrite has different behavior in the presence and the absence of additives (i.e., FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O and sulfur). While the absence of additives increased the nickel and zinc dissolution, their presence increased the total iron dissolution. Sulfur and jarosite were observed on the surfaces of pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite. With the formation of these passivation layers, the continuous iron extraction is effectively suppressed. This study is helpful to comparatively evaluate the AMD production of sulfide minerals in an oxidizing environment and to study the effects of passivation layers on their biooxidation in different conditions.
