High geogenic metal levels were recorded in the sediments of a mountain catchment.
•
The catchment experienced significant change in climate over the recent three decades.
•
Metal increase matched changes in freezing line, precipitation and freezing events.
•
This is important environmental risk, particularly if climate continues to change.
•
Findings have wide implications for the natural and anthropic heavy-metal stores.
