Study of Cadmium Element Concentration in Different Horizons of Soil in Mineralization Range of Sarcheshmeh Copper Mine and its Subsequent Damages from its Propagation in Environment

摘要

Sarcheshmeh copper Complex is accounted as one of the greatest mine-industrial centers in Iran that the amount of heavy metals similar, Cadmium in the regions around it is more than the mineral non-active regions. Based on the researches which were done on the Cadmium concentration, it was shown that the pollution of environment to the cadmium element in near regions to Industrial Cities such as Sarcheshmeh copper Town and metal melting kilns is including as a serious matter and at present, there are evidences indicate that Cadmium is including as a carcinogenic material and as a factor in creating the deformed fetus, in addition to the above mentioned issues, it has bad and harmful effects on the bird's life and aquatics. In this manner, sampling was done from the soils around Sarcheshmeh copper mine in 56 research stations around Sarcheshmeh copper complex. The obtained results show the considerable concentration of heavy metals such as Cadmium element in the soils of Sarcheshmeh copper region.
