: Future work can focus on kinetic studies, including long-term leaching tests and column experiments, to evaluate time-dependent metal release, phase transformations, and evolving geochemical conditions influencing contaminant mobility in GMTs. Additionally, detailed investigations on acid mine drainage potential through acid base accounting and related tests can be undertaken to assess long-term environmental risks.
