  • Effects of Copper on Fish and Aquatic Resources
    Effects of Copper on Fish and Aquatic Resources Prepared for By Dr. Carol Ann Woody & Sarah Louise O’Neal Fisheries Research and Consulting Anchorage, Alaska June 2012 Effects of Copper on Fish and Aquatic Resources Introduction The Nushagak and Kvichak river watersheds in Bristol Bay Alaska (Figure 1) together produced over 650 million sockeye salmon during 1956-2011, about 40% of Bristol Bay production (ADFG 2012). Proposed mining of copper–sulfide ore in these watersheds will expose rocks with elevated metal concentrations including copper (Cu) (Figure 1; Cox 1996, NDM 2005a, Ghaffari et al. 2011). Because mining can increase metal concentrations in water by several orders of magnitude compared to uncontaminated sites (ATSDR 1990, USEPA 2000, Younger 2002), and because Cu can be highly toxic to aquatic life (Eisler 2000), this review focuses on risks to aquatic life from potential increased Cu inputs from proposed development. Figure 1. Map showing current mining claims (red) in Nushagak and Kvichak river watersheds as of 2011. Proven low- grade copper sulfide deposits are located in large lease block along Iliamna Lake. Documented salmon streams are outlined in dark blue. Note many regional streams have never been surveyed for salmon presence or absence. Sources: fish data from: www.adfg.alaska.gov/sf/SARR/AWC/index.cfm?ADFG =main.home mine data from Alaska Department of Natural Resources - http://www.asgdc.state.ak.us/ Core samples collected from Cu prospects near Iliamna Lake (Figure 1) show high potential for acid generation due to iron sulfides in the rock (NDM 2005a). When sulfides are exposed to oxygen and water sulfuric acid forms, which can dissolve metals in rock.

    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE REGION 2 DIVISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANTS CONTAMINANTS IN BIGHORN SHEEP ON THE KOFA NATIONAL WIL DLIFE REFUGE, 2000-2001 By Carrie H. Marr, Anthony L. Velasco1, and Ron Kearns2 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Arizona Ecological Services Office 2321 W. Royal Palm Road, Suite 103 Phoenix, Arizona 85021 July 2004 2 ABSTRACT Soils of abandoned mines on the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge (KNWR) are contaminated with arsenic, barium, mercury, manganese, lead, and zinc. Previous studies have shown that trace element and metal concentrations in bats were elevated above threshold concentrations. High trace element and metal concentrations in bats suggested that bighorn sheep also may be exposed to these contaminants when using abandoned mines as resting areas. We found evidence of bighorn sheep use, bighorn sheep carcasses, and scat in several abandoned mines. To determine whether bighorn sheep are exposed to, and are accumulating hazardous levels of metals while using abandoned mines, we collected soil samples, as well as scat and bone samples when available. We compared mine soil concentrations to Arizona non-residential clean up levels. Hazard quotients were elevated in several mines and elevated for manganese in one Sheep Tank Mine sample. We analyzed bighorn sheep tissues for trace elements. We obtained blood, liver, and bone samples from hunter-harvested bighorn in 2000 and 2001. Arizona Game and Fish Department also collected blood from bighorn during a translocation operation in 2001. Iron and magnesium were elevated in tissues compared to reference literature concentrations in other species. Most often, domestic sheep baseline levels were used for comparison because of limited available data for bighorn sheep.

Review Paper Copper Toxicity: A Comprehensive Study Badiye Ashish1, Kapoor Neeti1 and Khajuria Himanshu2 1RTM Nagpur University, Nagpur, MH, INDIA 2Amity University, Noida, UP, INDIA Available online at: www.isca.in Received 29th November 2012, revised 25th December 2012, accepted 15th February 2013 Abstract Copper (Cu) is an essential trace minerals that is vitally important for physical and mental health. But due to wide spread occurrence of copper in our food, hot water pipe, nutritional deficiencies tablet and birth control pills increases chances of copper toxicity. Copper is not poisonous in its metallic state but some of its salts are poisonous. Copper is a powerful inhibitor of enzymes. It is needed by the body for a number of functions, predominantly as a cofactor for a number of enzymes such as ceruloplasmin, cytochrome oxidase, dopamine β-hydroxylase, superoxide dismutase and tyrosinase. It is present in several haematinics and its salts are also used therapeutically because of their astringent and antiseptic properties but sometimes copper salts are poisonous for human organ system.Copper Toxicity is increasingly becoming common these days. It is a condition in which a increase in the copper retention in the kidney occurs. Copper first start depositing in the liver and disrupts the liver’s ability to detoxify elevated copper level in the body thus adversely affect nervous system, reproductive system, adrenal function, connective tissue, learning ability of new born baby, etc. When acidic foods are cooked in unlined copper cookware or in lined cookware where the lining has worn through, toxic amounts of copper can leech into the foods being cooked.

The aim of the present study was to investigate if spiny dogfish were equally sensitive to copper exposure and whether the toxic mechanisms were the same. We exposed cannulated and non-cannulated spiny dogfish to measured concentrations of Cu (nominally 0, 500, 1000 and 1500 ␮gL−1 Cu) for 72–96 h. All Cu exposures induced acidosis and lactate accumulation of either a temporary (500 ␮gL−1) or more persistent nature (1000 and 1500 ␮gL−1). At the two highest Cu concentrations, gill Na+/K+-ATPase activities were reduced by 45% (1000 ␮gL−1) and 62% (1500 ␮gL−1), and plasma Na+ and Cl− concentrations increased by approximately 50 mM each.

    Annotated Bibliography: Effects of Copper on Fish 2009 Alam, M. K. and O. E. Maughan (1992). "THE EFFECT OF MALATHION, DIAZINON, AND VARIOUS CONCENTRATIONS OF ZINC, COPPER, NICKEL, LEAD, IRON, AND MERCURY ON FISH." Biological Trace Element Research 34(3): 225-236. Acute and chronic toxicity tests for malathion, diazinon, copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), and iron (Fe) were conducted. Mortalities of Barilius vagra and Cyprinus carpio (common carp) were variable but LC50-96 hr were similar for pesticides, Adult B. vagra seem to be more sensitive to malathion than juvenile carp. Both juvenile carp and adult B. vagra were extremely sensitive to diazinon. Long-term exposure to pesticides modified morphology and behavior. The LC50-96 values for Cu, Hg, and Pb were 0.3, 0.16, and 0.44, respectively, for smaller fish and 1.0, 0.77, and 1.33, respectively, for larger fish. Replicate LC50 values for Zn, Ni, and Fe were somewhat variable, and for these metals, the size of the fish seemed to affect response because LC50 values increased as fish size increased. Cooper, Pb, Zn, and Fe residues following exposure to sublethal concentrations of these metals for 15 d were significantly greater in whole juvenile common carp than in controls. Apte, S. C., G. E.
