The farmland soil around a Pb-Zn mine in southwestern China was studied. One hundred forty-nine surface soil samples were taken from 0-20 cm depth, and the contents of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, and Zn were tested. The correlations among these heavy metals were studied with multivariate analysis, and the potential sources of the metals were identified. The environmental risk of the metals was evaluated with the Potential Ecological Risk Index method. The results showed that the amounts of Cd, Pb, and Zn were at relatively high level, with average concentrations of 15.56, 419.4, and 933.4mg·kg |
