Mercury in soil profiles from metal mining and smelting areas in Namibia and Zambia: distribution and potential sources
Original language description
Mercury concentrations in soils from mining/smelting areas were significantly higher in northern Namibia than in the Zambian Copperbelt This phenomenon is related to the higher levels of Hg in the mine tailing materials as well as the feed/wastes from the smelters in Namibia (specifically in Berg Aukas and Tsumeb). Only 27% (Namibia) and 26 % (Zambia) of the soil samples exceeded geochemical anomaly thresholds generally indicating a low Hg pollution level. The highest Hg concentrations were observed in the uppermost soil layers.
