Environmental impact of heavy metals (Fe, Ni, Cr, C) in soils waters and plants of triada in euboea from ultrabasic rocks and nickeliferous mineralisartion

摘要

Soil, water and vegetation samples were collected from the Triada area of central Euboea and analysed for heavy metals in order to evaluate their environmental impact. The geology of the area studied includes ultrabasic rocks that are overlaid by Upper Cretaceous limestones whereas Fe-Ni mineralisation is intercalated between either the ultrabasic parent rocks or the karstified Jur- Assic/Triassic carbonates and the transgessive Upper Cretaceous limestones.
