Eleven yeasts were isolated from wastewater sediment samples collected from a copper filter mine plant, located in the province of TucumΓ‘n, Argentina, and tested for their heavy metal tolerance. Two isolates were selected based on their multiple tolerance to different heavy metals and their copper b
Yeasts were found concentrated at the sediment surface and with the highest counts at the most polluted site. Candida krusei, Pichia membranaefaciens and similar species typically forming rugose colonies with radiating ridges were the prevalent yeasts in these sediments, and species like Rhodotorula
