Lichen transplants were established along a 40 km transect centred on a large mine waste dump close to Zlatna town centre, two weeks after closure of a major industrial source, to compare spatial patterns of element concentrations in lichen and bark samples. After 3 months of exposure, spatial patterns of 4 element concentrations (Pb, Cu, Zn and Fe) in transplants confirmed deposition due to a point source 'Ziatna influence'. Cu and Pb reached concentrations 8 and 4 times, respectively, higher than samples transplanted in the 'background' site, and over 200 (Cu) and 2000 (Ph) times higher relative to 'background' bark. Ten out of 15 elements analysed reached highest concentrations in bark. Spatial patterns confirmed long-term pollution for 6 elements (Pb, S, Fe, Cu, Zn and Ba). The study provides a model baseline to monitor recovery following closure of major industrial sources and highlights the importance of considering biogeochemical processes when interpreting metal concentrations.
