## Abstract Unsterile soil samples pH 6.8 were amended with 10% sucrose or 0.1% NH~4~NO~3~/2% casein to influence solubility of metal cations. Microbial formation of aliphatic carboxylic acids reduced pH of sucrose soil to 4.3 and increased the solubility of heavy metals by 60βfold due to the incre
## Abstract Research on the behaviour of microorganisms in geogenic or anthropogenic metallomorphic environments is an integral part of geomicrobiology. The investigation of microbial impact on the fate of minerals and geologically significant compounds of mining areas can lead to an understanding
