Çamköy Dam

Çamköy Dam is a boron wastewater collection dam in Balıkesir, Turkey. Wastewater from a nearby colemanite mine is collected in the dam.[1][2] The wastewater from the mine has a high boron concentration (627.36 mg/L).[1] The amount of boron in the reservoir was found to vary, slightly, peaking in August.[3] A study of the phytoplankton in the dam's reservoir found 44 taxa, 77% of which belonged to the Bacillariophyta.[3]
