Profile Distributions of Lead, Zinc, and Copper in Dystric Cambisols Developed from Granite and Gneiss of the Sudetes Mountains, Poland

Cezary Kabała; Leszek Szerszeń

Total contents of Pb, Zn and Cu were examined in twenty-five soilprofiles of forested Dystric Cambisols developed from granite andgneiss in the area of the Sudetes Mountains (SW Poland). Sequential extraction of heavy metals was also carried out to study relations between metal content and soil compounds. Profile distribution differed among the metals examined: Pb concentrations decreased gradually from surface with depth, whereas those of Zn increased with depth of soil profile, obtaining their maximum in the bedrock horizon. Cu was found to accumulate in topsoil and decrease with depth, but showed secondary increase of the concentration in bedrock. Organic matter was found to be a crucial factor of Pb binding and distribution, while iron oxides played the most important rolein Zn binding. Both organic matter and oxides were important factors of Cu distribution. The results of sequential extractionshow that all studied elements are mobile under strong acidicconditions in investigated Cambisols. Thus, total contents of Zn and Cu in bedrock cannot be used as geochemical background or as reference levels for assessing the contamination of soilsurface with these metals.

Areal, Profile and Time Differentiation of Heavy Metal Content in Soils in The Vicinity of Copper Smelters in Lgom, Poland

Leszek Szerszeń; Tadeusz Chodak; A. Karczewska

An intense accumulation of Pb and Cu occured in the upper layers of the soils situated near the “Glogow” copper smelters. This was confirmed by the profile and timal analysis of the heavy metal content in these soils. The degree of contamination depended mainly on the distance from the smelter. No migration of heavy metals into soil profiles occured in the clay and silty soils investigated, regardless of soil type and the category of soil utilization.
