Methane Oxidation and Molecular Characterization of Methanotrophs from a Former Mercury Mine Impoundment

The Herman Pit, once a mercury mine, is an impoundment located in an active geothermal area. Its acidic waters are permeated by hundreds of gas seeps. One seep was sampled and found to be composed of mostly CO(2) with some CH(4) present. The δ(13)CH(4) value suggested a complex origin for the methan...
