Molybdenum in Drinkingwater WHO
Levels of molybdenum in drinkingwater do not usually exceed 10 #181;g/l (Greathouse amp; Osborne, 1980). However, in areas near molybdenum mining operations, the molybdenum concentration in finished water was reported to be as high as 200 #181;g/l. Tapwater concentrations as high as 580 #181;g/l have been reported in Colorado (Chappell, 1973).
