摘要: Thirty-one topsoils (0–5 cm) from Pribram, a smelting and mining town in the Czech Republic, have been analysed for mercury content by ICP-AES. The aim of this preliminary survey was to determine whether problem may exist area regarding Hg contamination. geometric mean concentration recorded 0.36 μg g−1 with range 0.07-2.32 g−1. maximum smelter smaller peak observed area. Topsoil significantly correlated distance (P < 0.10) organic matter soil 0.01). possible implications exposure are discussed.
