Environmental Risk Due to Heavy Metal Contamination Caused by Old Copper Mining Activity at Lubietová Deposit, Slovakia

Original language description

The more than 200 years old dump-fields at closed Cu (Ag) deposit ?ubietová are situated near the village settlement. Heavy metal space distribution is controlled by geochemical behaviour of the elements, depend on their content, solubility, migration and sorption ability. The major sources of metals to the country components (soil, technogenous sediments, groundwater, surface water, plants) may be classified according to expected solubility of primary minerals. The content of heavy metals in sedimentsand soils at the studied dump-field shows irregular distribution. Also the heavy metal contamination of the surface water and groundwater was studied both in the rainy as well as during the dry periods. The speciation of As and Sb proved in the water presence both of As3+ and Sb3+ as well as the less toxic As5+ and Sb5+ species. In the soil and sediments prevail As5+ and Sb5+ species while in the water is often dominant the As3+ and Sb3+ form. The article also presents some results of th
