The Jadavpur team believe the reducing environment in the younger region of the Ganges delta may have resulted in the formation of arsenic-rich pyrite and that the arsenic in this mineral might be mobilised by oxidative dissolution.
The fact that the Jadavpur team highlight depth is rather disappointing." McArthur adds that the Jadavpur team, unfortunately for the scientific debate, also misquoted his paper in theirs and in addition they have provided insufficient data themselves on the redox state of their water samples.
