Large-scale mining activities generate significant amounts of waste that accumulates in the environment. These wastes, known as mine tailings, contain high levels of heavy metals, posing risks to human health and causing severe damage to ecosys- tems. In this study, we determined the heavy metal content of mine tailings in the Sierra de Huautla Bio- sphere Reserve (REBIOSH), Mexico, investigated their effect on microbial composition and did functional metagenome analysis. These data show the translation with PRODIGAL of the coding sequences and the annotation with Eggnog-mapper and enrichM
