Experimental modeling with the aim of elucidation of the geochemical behaviour of heavy metal pollutants (Pb, Zn, Cd, Cu, Ni, Mn, Fe) and As during interphase processes in metallurgy contaminated area are carried out in 3 aspects: I. Water-soil interaction chemical simulation: 3D –lixiviation of soils and acid rain impact modeling, revealing consequences for a secondary remobilization and increasing the environmental risk for groundwater, vegetables, etc. II. Sorption ability of soils with fixing possibilities, ...

The degree of heavy metal (+As) water and vegetable contamination due to mining and metallurgical activities in the studied area is evaluated in individual and integral aspects. 267 ground, surface and waste water samples, according to the proposed grid, were investigated for trace elements, 56 of them for 34 elements: Al, As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Zn, Hg, Be, B, V, Sn, Mo, Se, Ag, Te, Tl, Ti, U, Ca, Li, Mg, Sr, Bi, Ga, In, K, and Na. The analytical work is performed with inductively coupled plas...
