Multivariate analysis of groundwater contamination by arsenic at mina Delita, Cuba
Main Article Content
Abstract
Results from the application of multivariate analysis in Varimax mode applying Kaiser Criterion to the identification of the most important control variables of Arsenic contamination in ground water of Delita gold mine are discussed. 72% of the total variance could be explained by only two factors.
