This study is to investigate the physico-chemical parameters and trace metal’s concentrations (Cd, Pb, Cu, and Zn) in water and surficial sediments (0-5 cm) samples in the Kebir-Rhumel Wadi, north-eastern Algeria. Trace metal concentrations was determined using flame atomic absorption spectroscopy. The mean values of the physico-chemical parameters of the Wadi water samples are consistently […]
Khunik gold prospecting area is located in the eastern part of Lut block, eastern Iran. Main rock units are andesite, agglomerate, latite, dacitic lava, rhyodacite, volcanic breccia and conglomerate. Geological and geochemical evidences indicate low to medium sulfide gold mineralization. Mining activates accumulate heavy metals in soil and water that are associated with harmful effects […]
